Who is Heliotec?
Heliotec is an energy technology company that helps businesses gain greater visibility and control over their energy consumption. Through its AI-powered energy intelligence platform, Helios, Heliotec enables organisations to identify energy waste, optimise site performance and reduce both operating costs and carbon emissions. The platform transforms complex energy data into clear, practical insights, helping businesses understand how, when and where energy is being used across one site or many.
Heliotec specialises in supporting multi-site businesses across sectors including hospitality, retail, manufacturing and commercial property.
Why are we working together?
As businesses face rising energy costs and increasing pressure to improve energy efficiency, we're joining forces with Heliotec to make energy management more accessible and actionable.
