FAQ's

Is voltage optimisation worth it?

Yes, voltage optimisation is worth it for any size business! Your business can save anywhere between 8-19% annually on electricity. Not only could this save you thousands, but it also massively reduces your business's carbon footprint helping you achieve your sustainability goals. Plus, if you need any more convincing, voltage optimisation also increases your electrical equipment’s lifespan by up to 46%!

Do voltage optimisers actually work?

Yes, voltage optimisers have saved some of our customers a lot of money on their annual electricity bills. Please see some of our case studies to see what we can do for a business like yours.

How does voltage optimisation work?

A voltage optimiser works by lowering the incoming voltage that is supplied to your equipment from 242 volts to 220 volts. The extra electricity is then sent back to the grid. This reduces your electricity bills and boosts the lifespan of your electrical equipment.

How long untill I see a return on investment for voltage optimisation?

You will be able to see a return on investment with voltage optimisation in as quick as 8 – 16 months.

Is the voltage optimisation installation disruptive?

No, a voltage optimiser install should only take a couple of hours which means that your business will not have to shut operations down for very long.

What should I do if I want a voltage optimiser but don’t own my building?

Don’t own the building that you run your business from? Don’t worry, you could still benefit from our savings, however, we would also need to work with your landlord to receive permission for this installation. If you want to find out more, get in touch today.

How long does it take to install voltage optimisers?

Voltage Optimisers are quick to install. They will take between a few hours and half a day to install. You should be aware that during this time your electricity might have to be switched off.

Can I get energy saving data from my voltage optimiser?

Yes, most voltage optimisation machines will come with monitoring software so you can measure your savings straight away as soon as you have this technology.

Will voltage optimisation make my equipment last longer?

Yes, a voltage optimiser will increase the lifespan of your electrical equipment by 46% on average.

Does voltage optimisation work with solar?

Yes, it is very favourable to get a voltage optimiser installed when you get solar as this improves the efficiency of your solar panels and helps you further reduce energy costs.

Will voltage optimisation make my lights dimmer?

Voltage optimisation supplies electricity to lights at a slightly lower voltage. This does not dim the lights; it simply allows them to last longer.

Will voltage optimisation make my equipment slower?

No, voltage optimisation does not make your electrical equipment run slower. In fact, installing Voltage optimisation can make your equipment run more efficiently and last longer.
