FAQ
Common questions
How much can we realistically save?
Savings typically range between 10% and 40%, depending on the site and how energy has been managed to date. The free assessment gives you a realistic range for your operation before you commit to anything.
What does an energy audit involve?
We review your bills, tariff structure and half-hourly data, then survey on site. The output is a costed opportunity register - every measure with its expected savings, capex and payback, ranked so you know exactly where to start.
How quickly will we see results?
Tariff corrections and billing recoveries often show on your next invoice. Behavioural and operational changes follow within weeks, while any capital measures pay back over one to four years - we'll show you the numbers before you approve anything.
Which sectors do you work with?
Retail, fast food and restaurants, healthcare, manufacturing and hospitality - essentially any business with a meaningful energy spend. We're based in Cape Town and serve clients nationally across South Africa.
Do we need to pay anything upfront?
The initial assessment is free. Audits are a fixed fee agreed in advance, with no surprises. Ongoing monitoring is typically a monthly retainer tailored to how many sites you operate.
How does monitoring & targeting work?
We set up submetering and dashboards tailored to your sites, then track consumption against expected patterns. When something drifts - a plant left running overnight, a tariff change, an unexpected spike - you get an alert the week it happens, not months later on an invoice.
