Heating and cooling systems can take up a huge chunk of a commercial or industrial electricity budget, whether your business needs air conditioning, refrigeration, or heating.

Working with our team will make the process easier for you as we identify upgrades that address your needs while keeping costs low and improving your organisation’s energy efficiency. We leave no stone unturned to help you achieve your objectivesgoals. Leading Edge Energy will:

• Analyse your energy bills and usage to understand where your heating and cooling costs are highest and pinpoint where adjustments can be made.
• Undergo benchmarking to compare your organisation’s energy consumption to similar businesses to determine where we can reduce costs and make enhancements.
• Stay updated on related potential rebates and incentives offered by the government or utility providers. We will assist you in applying for the ones best suited for your business.
• Give you advice on adopting heating and cooling technology based on our experience, available data, analysis, and how these might affect your needs and budget.
• Go to tender so you can choose the most suitable offerings from our network of partner vendors and maximise your investment. Our connections with retailers and suppliers mean we can help negotiate more competitive prices.
• Manage heating and cooling upgrade projects. We will be with you from the planning stage to execution and even post-installation as we monitor your consumption and invoices.

Our objective as your energy management consultants is to guide your business in making sustainable, efficient HVAC upgrades that reduce consumption and costs.

Australia’s power supply tends to fluctuate and vary in voltage due to the long distances between generation sites and end-users. Additionally, the voltage supplied in Australia is often much higher than what is usually needed. This can lead to higher costs and affect the durability of electrical equipment.

We can offer expert advice to correct the voltage and improve the energy efficiency of equipment such as air conditioners and motors.

Your business can expect less wasted energy, better power quality, extended device lifespans, and lower electricity bills through our voltage optimisation services.

What are the specific requirements and preferences of your business?

Apparent Power is the power the network sees while Real Power is the actual amount of power used on site. These figures should match. If not, the Power Factor, or the difference between Real Power and Apparent Power, must be determined and corrected.

Leading Edge Energy can assess whether your power factor needs to be corrected based on several signals like significantly higher electricity costs despite not changing how your business uses electricity, voltage fluctuations, overheating transformers, and more.

Once we know your Power Factor and find that there are some discrepancies, we can correct it by installing capacitors as needed to operate various appliances efficiently and reduce electricity charges by up to 10%.

What this means for our clients

• Expert advice on how to reduce electricity consumption through efficiency
• Recommendations for energy-efficient equipment that suffer less from wear and tear
• Reduced carbon footprint
• Real savings over the medium-long term

Leading Edge Energy will help you identify the best possible options to make a well-informed and confident decision for your business. We start by rationalising system design and specifications to ensure all the photovoltaic (PV) system providers deliver quotes that can be reviewed on a like-for-like basis.

Our service includes system design, specification, and tender outcome reporting. Post-installation, we also provide system monitoring and support to ensure that it is working correctly for the system’s life.

Installing a rooftop solar generation system is becoming more affordable; when coupled with a battery, your business can reap financial rewards and decrease its carbon footprint further.

Leading Edge Energy makes the procurement process easier for your business to ensure that you are benefiting from the best opportunity available. We do this by running a full analysis of the solutions available in the market, tendering for the recommended system, and providing an analysis and breakdown of the return on investment.

With a battery storage system installed, your business can pivot and take advantage of excess energy generated during the day when it is costly, such as in the evening.

What this means for our clients

• The best solar and battery systems recommendations to suit their needs
• The best possible return on investment
• Lower emissions and carbon footprint
• Increased flexibility
• Cheaper energy bills
• More independence from the traditional electricity grid
