More than 24 government buildings get upgrades to support net zero goals

Our engineers have successfully upgraded more than 24 government buildings with sub-metering, helping the public sector achieve its targets for net zero.

The sub-metering project

In a recent phase of a multi-year project, our core services and metering teams used their specialist expertise to design and install electrical sub-metering in government buildings across the country. 

This submetering project involved installing a range of sub-metering equipment - 553 electricity meter points, 21 gas logger installations and 17 water logger installations  – at strategic points across each site to help understand consumption and emissions at a more granular level.

It's impact - supporting net zero interventions

These upgrades have supported government organisations to:

• Benchmark their electricity usage
• Visualise changes in energy consumption
• Demonstrate financial savings from net-zero interventions

By adding the electrical sub-metering equipment, these organisations can now demonstrate the impact of previous net-zero projects across these buildings, such as solar panel installations, heat pumps, and LED lighting works.

This allows facility management and maintenance teams to monitor and improve energy usage – a rounded approach to achieving net zero and sustainability targets.

The project is the latest stage in years of ongoing work to support decarbonisation across government and wider public sector buildings.
