Business Parks and Office Buildings
There is growing pressure for commercial property to be sustainable. In other words, now is the right time to invest in energy saving measures, whether you’re a landlord, tenant or indeed both.
“The trend for offices with a higher energy rating attracting better rental prices, is now starting to appear more commonplace in the UK” Office Space News: May 2010
Clients, even in these frugal times, are happy to pay a premium to landlords for buildings displaying the best energy efficient measures. Why? Firstly there is increasing social and legislative pressure on companies to show a green ethic, especially from their stakeholders. Secondly, an energy efficient building is also a financially efficient building providing long term financial savings to the occupier.
Gil-lec Energy Solutions are experienced at working with both landlords and tenants to maximise the energy saving potential in a building or office space. We recognise the fine balance that needs to be struck when considering both initial outlay and return on investment, to satisfy all parties.
Our experienced Energy Team can recommend a range of tangible measures providing both short term and longer term payback periods. From extensive metering, to recommending simple retrofit lamp replacement, right through to lighting design and building control systems, utilising cutting edge digital DALI dimming systems.
Working with our key partners we can also assess the energy impact on a building from inefficient technology such as motors, pumps and drives, where necessary employing a range of measures to reduce energy consumption. Finally we can work with you or your client to assess current energy unit cost, offering fantastic reductions in the majority of cases.
Whether landlord or tenant, sustainability really is a key differential in the marketplace. Speak to one of our energy specialists today and future proof your building.
