What the government’s announcement really means for business By-lined by Kelly Lovesy, Sales Director, DCC Energy Management Services  The UK government has announced decisive action to break the link between gas and electricity prices.   Currently, gas sets the price of electricity in roughly 60% of trading half-hours, meaning every spike in gas markets has a direct impact on business electricity bills. By […]

Why the commercial case for solar panels and battery storage has never been stronger By-lined by Chris Ruddock, Sales Director, Centreco  For years, solar and battery storage have been deferred as a sustainability investment for later down the line, when the timing felt right and the commercial returns were clearer.  Today, two core pressures being experienced in the energy […]

Part One | Part Two | Part Three Elliot Meighan, Commercial Operations Analyst at Equity Energies  In parts one and two of this series, we explored why integration matters, and how tariff strategy and timing determine whether value is realised or lost. But integration doesn’t end at design; the final shift is operational and strategic, and how organisations position themselves within a changing energy […]

Part One | Part Two | Part Three Chris Ruddock, Sales Director at Centreco In part one of this series, we established that storage has crossed a commercial threshold. Now, in part two we address a tougher question: where does the real value get unlocked?  For this we need to go beyond solar and battery technology, into energy strategy, and […]

On-site generation using solar PV has become a familiar feature of the energy landscape, often associated with visible sustainability credentials and always with the promise of lower electricity costs. Battery storage has been less widely deployed to date, but it’s now also moving rapidly up the agenda as the price of […]

The UK’s energy system is being rebuilt and grid reinforcement, renewable integration and accelerating electrification are reshaping what sits behind the electricity bill. An increasing share of cost is now driven by regulated, infrastructure-linked charges that are rising steadily as the system modernises.  For organisations exploring or investing in on-site solar, this shift changes the strategic context. Solar can reduce exposure […]
