Green Credentials

Green Credentials

Companies today strive to save energy and prove their Green Credentials. Here at Building Energy Controls Solutions (BECS UK) we are no different and do everything we can to save energy.

Here are a selection of the things we do to save vital energy:

  • Our new premesis in 2017 has been refurbised using 5" Insulation around the entire perimeter
  • We have Solar Panels on both Current and Old Sites (still Providing Clean Energy to the Grid)
  • Our solar gains pay more than the energy we use to run our Current building so it is carbon neutral.
  • We use energy saving LED light fittings.
  • Drive the most fuel efficient vehicles.
  • Have recently added 3 x Jaguar I-Pace all electric Vehicles to our Fleet
  • Recycle everything we can.
  • Provide the most energy efficient solutions for our clients.

Our contact with this company arose from a conversation at a Trade Fair in Harrogate. Like most companies, we were looking to reduce our carbon footprint and energy usage.

 

Our big gain to reduce energy was to replace our existing 6’ twin fluorescent surface mounted light fittings with a more efficient light source. BECS [Graham Brown] made a visit to our premises and suggested that it would be possible to retro fit our existing fittings with new LED tubes. We were delighted with a trial run, and have continued to fit new tubes as opportunity arises. All work has been carried out by ‘in house’ staff.

 

Our new lighting has done exactly as specified by BECS, reducing our lighting load by at least 65%, vastly reducing maintenance and flicking lights, and giving better light with instant start. The lamp life is quoted at over 40 000 hours but we are unable to comment as ours are relatively new [2 years], but there is no reason at this stage to assume that the rated lamp life will not be achieved.

 

This company offers comprehensive advice and first class service and we would have no hesitation in recommending their services.
