Unlock profits… just by switching the lights on

HOW YOUR COMPANY CAN UNLOCK PROFITS – JUST BY SWITCHING THE LIGHTS ON.

You may not be aware, but if your company runs through just 0.25MW of electricity per year, you could help make the United Kingdom greener AND earn your company more revenue – simply by adjusting your electricity usage throughout the day.

The reason is simple; the National Grid needs to keep power consistently at 50Hz, 24 hours a day; but it isn’t an easy task. People change their electricity consumption throughout the day, and green power generators like wind or solar don’t run consistently either. The result is that at some times in the day the grid won’t have enough power and at other times it will have too much – which can cause blackouts nationwide.

That’s where your company can help.

EARNING MONEY THROUGH ENDECO

Here at Endeco, we can provide the equipment and state of the art systems needed to connect your company’s electrical assets to the grid so your assets (whether it be lighting, fans or industrial equipment) can respond to the grid’s needs at any moment.

The National Grid pays up to £70,000 per year for every Megawatt of energy that you use or save to keep the grid balanced – so you know the potential revenue isn’t something to be sniffed at. What’s more is, that in the next two months, that’s all set to increase further with the new Dynamic Firm Frequency Response scheme.

Luckily there are no upfront costs to your business to get started with Endeco – we provide everything you need to get involved, and instead of charging you for our services, we take a percentage of the revenue earned from the National Grid.

We don’t just install the equipment – we provide our own unique software that helps you seamlessly move from one scheme to another at any time, to ensure you’re always making the most revenue from your energy supply. We’re continually assessing up and coming schemes and changes to old ones, so you get the best advice on which scheme is right for your company at any moment.

THE NEW, HIGHEST EARNING SCHEME – DYNAMIC FIRM FREQUENCY RESPONSE

Joining one of the National Grid schemes with Endeco today will mean you can have your company setup for the latest scheme which we’re really excited about – Dynamic Firm Frequency Response.

The Dynamic Firm Frequency Response scheme is perfect for the grid and companies alike; it means that companies like yours can respond to the grids needs automatically, in less than a second, resulting in a more balanced grid and helping to allow more use of green power stations like wind farms and solar panels.

What’s more is that companies can earn more revenue than ever before on this scheme. The National Grid will roll out the DFFR scheme in the next two months, and it could pay out up to £90,000 annually for every Megawatt you can help them balance the grid with. If you take part with Endeco.

Our system allows for higher potential earnings on this scheme than any other because we’ve created a unique program with 40 man-years of development that puts Endeco clients closer to the system than anyone else. And being closer and more reactive means even higher revenues; because it’s exactly what the National Grid needs.

DEMAND SIDE RESPONSE OPENS NEW DOORS

Demand side response schemes like DFFR don’t just pay off directly from the National Grid payments either; they also allow your company to avoid peak electricity tariffs and get involved in wholesale energy trading.

You can get involved in these schemes to save money by buying your energy directly from wholesale sources at better prices, and by avoiding buying electricity during peak usage times when it costs the most.

A great way to take advantage of all these benefits is to install a commercial battery within your company. Commercial batteries are becoming much cheaper and a genuinely viable option for companies looking to get involved in the National Grid schemes in a big way – while avoiding too much disruption in day to day business processes. Here at Endeco you can even get batteries on finance, so there won’t be a huge upfront cost.

If you’d like to find out if your company could be earning more this year through Endeco, or if you’d like to find out more about any of the scheme’s mentioned here, just contact us today on 01923 431 638.
