DIY Business Energy Audit

Find out what's contributing to your bill and the steps you can take to reduce your energy costs.

Lift your energy efficiency to new heights with our DIY energy audit

Energy audits are an essential first step to understand how your business uses energy and identify opportunities to reduce your overall energy costs. We know that the cost of a professional energy audit can be a barrier for small businesses and may not be affordable for everyone. 

That's why we've created a free, easy-to-use DIY business energy audit. Your energy audit will recommend practical steps you can take to be more energy efficient, identify where energy may be wasted and suggest areas for future investment that will save your business money.

Tips to help make the most of this energy audit

Every business is unique

This audit asks questions in 8 key energy use areas to help your business identify energy-saving opportunities and begin your energy efficiency journey.

Include key staff in your audit

Your staff can help identify areas of energy waste and how energy is used that you might not be aware of. Having your staff involved in the audit can help with energy efficiency practices that lead to savings opportunities.

Remember to check energy use outside of business hours

Look for hidden energy use through any equipment left on outside of business hours (including overnight or weekends).
