Building & Estate Energy Optimisation

Strategic energy reduction for complex estates and facilities.

From municipal buildings to university laboratories, we bridge the gap between high-level sustainability targets and ground-level mechanical realities. We audit, baseline, and verify interventions.

An evidence-led engineering process

Our interventions are rooted in physical inspection and metered baselines. Where weather or operating-condition normalisation is required, the method must be transparent and approved before any result is treated as verified.

1. Plant Room & BMS Audits

We interrogate the Building Management System and physically inspect the energy centres. We map the gap between how a building was designed to run and how it actually operates.

2. Baseline Normalisation

Raw consumption data is meaningless without context. We establish robust energy baselines normalised for weather (degree days), occupancy, and operational hours.

3. Verifiable Interventions

Whether adjusting a control strategy or overseeing a boiler retrofit, we track the impact against the established baseline to quantify efficiency gains under an agreed method.

Core Areas of Focus

HVAC Scheduling & Setpoints

Eliminating out-of-hours operation, aggressive setpoints, and fighting systems (simultaneous heating and cooling).

Variable Speed Drives (VSDs)

Ensuring pumps and fans react correctly to demand rather than running at fixed maximum outputs.

Fabric & Insulation

Identifying degraded pipework insulation, poorly sealed building envelopes, and excessive infiltration losses.

Sub-metering Hierarchy

Mapping sub-meters against main incomers to allocate energy use to specific zones, tenants, or high-intensity processes.

Powered by GESTI PULSE

Our consultancy relies on continuous data. GESTI PULSE is our proprietary platform designed to gather, normalize, and analyse estate-wide energy data.

By combining expert engineering audits with a resilient data platform, we deliver optimization strategies that stick. Performance drift is caught immediately, and savings are maintained year-on-year.
