The future of energy pricing in the UK is a long game — but the actions businesses take now will determine how well they manage risk, reduce costs, and align with net zero expectations. Despite some recent relief in energy prices, long-term forecasts indicate that volatility, infrastructure costs, and regulatory levies will continue to shape business energy bills for decades to come. For businesses, this means investment in energy monitoring, renewables, and smart infrastructure is not just a sustainability choice — it’s a strategic one.

The Next 5 Years: Volatility and Rising Pressures

In the next five years, energy prices are expected to remain high and unpredictable. Ofgem's price cap may have dropped in mid-2025, but underlying pressures such as network upgrades, wholesale fluctuations, and environmental levies continue to keep costs elevated. According to Cornwall Insight, prices are unlikely to significantly drop until the latter part of the decade, meaning businesses will need robust systems in place to monitor usage and control demand in the short term.

Looking Ahead to 2035: Stability on the Horizon

Looking 10 years ahead, there are signs of stabilisation. As major grid upgrades are completed and renewable capacity increases, wholesale prices are expected to become more predictable. Government initiatives like Great British Energy, launched in 2025, are also expected to bolster supply and reduce dependence on gas. However, the transition itself will be funded through levies and charges passed onto consumers — including businesses. Having a reliable energy monitoring and optimisation system in place will become essential for budgeting and forecasting, especially as more complex tariffs and dynamic pricing models are introduced.

2040 and Beyond: A Decarbonised but Demanding Grid

By 2040, the UK’s energy infrastructure will be largely decarbonised, with renewables like offshore wind and solar providing the majority of supply. However, increased demand from electric transport, industry electrification, and heating will continue to put pressure on the grid. While wholesale costs may reduce due to the dominance of low-cost renewables, businesses will still be paying for grid resilience and capacity upgrades. At this stage, organisations with on-site renewables, smart controls, and battery storage will be far better positioned to manage demand, participate in flexibility markets, and reduce reliance on grid imports.

2055–2060: Realising the Net Zero Vision

In 30 years, the UK expects to have fully met its net zero targets. By this point, green hydrogen, smart self-healing grids, and fully integrated energy systems will be the norm. Businesses that invested early in infrastructure will be reaping the benefits of dramatically lower energy costs, while late adopters may still be grappling with higher regulatory and infrastructure levies. Those with integrated systems will be able to automate demand response, store and trade surplus energy, and maintain operational resilience during grid events.

Why Businesses Must Act Now

To prepare for this future, businesses must take action now. Elcomponent provides advanced energy monitoring and management infrastructure tailored to commercial needs — from smart sub-metering and LoRaWAN systems to full energy dashboards and reporting. These tools give businesses real-time visibility over consumption, enabling better budgeting, proactive optimisation, and fast identification of waste or inefficiency.

Data-Led Decisions for Renewable Investment

Crucially, businesses can also use this data to build the case for investment in renewable energy technologies. By identifying peak loads, wasted energy, or predictable demand patterns, they can determine the viability of solar panels, battery storage, or heat pump systems. Elcomponent’s infrastructure supports this transition by integrating these assets into a single system, helping organisations reduce reliance on volatile grid supply and accelerate their journey to net zero.

The Role of On-Site Renewables in Risk Reduction

Renewables aren’t just a long-term investment — they’re a short-term shield. By generating power on-site, businesses can mitigate risk from sudden price spikes and lower their overall carbon footprint. Coupled with battery storage and smart controls, renewables allow businesses to operate more independently from the grid, capitalise on off-peak charging, and even trade energy back to the grid for additional revenue. With energy prices unlikely to return to pre-2020 levels any time soon, the ability to generate and manage energy in-house is becoming a key differentiator.

Conclusion: A Strategic Path to Cost Control and Resilience

In summary, the UK’s energy landscape is evolving — and while there is promise of stability and lower costs in the long term, the next decade will demand strategic foresight and investment. Businesses and organisations that adopt energy monitoring systems, embrace renewables, and build flexibility into their infrastructure will not only protect themselves from rising costs but also lead the way towards a more sustainable and resilient future. Elcomponent is here to help make that journey possible.

For businesses operating multiple small commercial sites — from retail chains and hospitality units to service depots and franchise outlets — energy usage can quickly become a blind spot. While each individual site may have modest consumption, collectively they represent a major cost centre and a significant opportunity for savings. Yet without the right tools, tracking and managing energy across a dispersed network is complex, time-consuming, and often reactive.

This is where Smappee steps in.

Smappee offers a smart, scalable energy management solution that gives businesses real-time insights into their electricity, solar, gas, and water usage across multiple sites — all through a single, centralised platform. For organisations managing several smaller locations, this represents a powerful shift from guesswork to data-driven control.

One System, Total Visibility

Smappee works by installing compact, easy-to-deploy monitors at each site. These monitors capture detailed energy data and instantly send it to the Smappee cloud, where it’s accessible via web and mobile dashboards. Whether you’re managing five sites or fifty, you can compare, analyse, and optimise performance across your entire estate — without needing to physically visit each one.

For businesses with limited facility staff or no on-site energy expertise, this makes energy management accessible, actionable, and fully remote. You can spot unusual consumption patterns, identify underperforming sites, and even detect equipment faults before they become costly problems.

How It Works

Smappee systems use a combination of current clamps and smart gateways to capture detailed energy data from your electrical distribution board. Depending on your setup, they can monitor:

• Total site consumption
• Solar PV generation
• Sub-circuits (e.g. HVAC, refrigeration, lighting)
• Gas and water flows via compatible pulse meters

This granular data is then broken down by appliance or circuit using advanced disaggregation algorithms, giving you a clear picture of what’s using energy — and when.

From here, the Smappee dashboard allows you to:

• View live and historical energy usage per site
• Compare usage across multiple locations
• Set alerts for unusual consumption
• Track ROI on solar panels or EV chargers
• Automate energy-saving actions using smart controls
• Tailored for Multi-Site Operations

Smappee is particularly valuable for businesses that lack the scale to justify a full-time energy manager at each site, but still want to control costs and improve sustainability. It allows central teams — whether in operations, finance, or facilities — to oversee the energy performance of all locations from a single login.

You can benchmark sites to spot outliers, test behavioural changes or equipment upgrades at one location before rolling them out more widely, and report accurately on corporate sustainability targets.

Integration & Automation

Smappee also integrates easily with building management systems (BMS), solar inverters, battery storage, and EV chargers — making it ideal for businesses that want to futureproof their energy strategy. You can add smart plugs or relays to automate devices based on usage patterns, time of day, or tariff changes, helping further reduce costs and flatten peak demand.

Why It Matters

Energy costs are unlikely to return to historic lows, and the pressure to cut carbon is only increasing. For businesses running multiple small sites, Smappee makes it possible to:

• Reduce energy bills without compromising operations
• Meet ESG and sustainability goals with real data
• Spot and address energy waste quickly
• Futureproof infrastructure for net zero requirements
• In short, it turns energy from a sunk cost into a strategic asset.

A Changing Landscape 

Over the past few decades, the energy profile of UK businesses has shifted dramatically. While overall energy consumption has trended down in some sectors, the rapid infusion of computerised technology has both stabilised and reshaped demand. 

The Office for National Statistics reports that between 2005 and 2020, industrial and commercial energy use dropped by 28%, outpacing reductions seen in homes (22%). This decline reflects improved efficiency and a structural shift away from heavy industry. However, energy usage has remained buoyant in service-oriented and tech-intensive sectors. 

According to Uswitch, UK business electricity consumption fell by 7.3% between 2014 and 2023 Uswitch—a noticeable improvement, yet still coupled with rising costs. Commercial electricity in Q1 2025 was 21.0 TWh, down 1.4% from a year earlier GOV.UK Assets+1GOV.UK Assets+1. 

The Digital Effect 

The uptake of computers, data centres, and connected devices has introduced a dynamic counterforce to efficiency gains. Around 34% of UK businesses now cite digitalisation and tech adoption as the primary driver of increased energy usage in 2025. 

Globally, the ICT (information and communications technology) sector accounts for 4–6% of total electricity, where devices—laptops, smartphones—consume more energy than networks and data centres combined Research Briefings+1London Datastore+1. While efficiency per unit has improved, overall demand remains flat or rising due to sustained tech adoption. 

A Look at the Numbers 

• Commercial sector share: In 2021, business and commercial users accounted for 29% of UK electricity consumption, compared to household (38%) and transport (2%) Research BriefingsSpacewell | A Nemetschek Company. 

• Total generation & consumption: In Q1 2025, UK electricity demand—including commercial—totalled 75.1 TWh, with 21.0 TWh used specifically in commercial/public sectors GOV.UK Assets. 

• Cost pressure: UK industrial tariffs, nearly 26 p/kWh in 2023, far exceed the IEA average (17.7 p)—and are over 4× higher than in the US (6.5 p/kWh) The Times. 

What It Means for Businesses 

1. Efficiency gains are real, but don’t outweigh rising appliance and digital loads. 

1. Energy intensity (energy per unit of economic output) has improved, but growing reliance on tech keeps demand steady The Times. 

1. High energy prices—especially for electricity—are squeezing businesses and pushing energy-intensive industries to restructure or move abroad . 

Strategies Moving Forward 

• Smart monitoring: Tracking device-level use helps spot digital loads—servers, point-of-sale systems, and HVAC—to target inefficiency. 

• Demand response: Managing peak-period use of digital systems can significantly reduce cost exposure. 

• Renewables & storage: On-site solar or battery systems help offset electricity cost and reduce carbon footprint. 

• Tech upgrades: Energy-efficient servers, LEDs, smart controls, and IT optimisations cut both energy use and emissions. 

Conclusion 

Over recent decades, UK commercial energy use has benefitted from efficiency improvements and structural economic shifts. Yet, the growing presence of computerised systems means that technology now drives a substantial portion of consumption. While total usage has fallen in some areas, energy resilience, smart monitoring, and digital-first efficiency strategies are becoming essential. For businesses, understanding and managing the interplay between energy and technology is key to reducing costs, staying competitive, and meeting sustainability goals. 

As one of the UK’s most established energy management firms, Elcomponent specialises in designing and installing centralised energy management systems across single buildings and multi-site estates. With operational costs soaring and net-zero targets looming, businesses must urgently tackle wasted energy and carbon emissions. The right systems of monitoring and strategy make all the difference.

The Scale of Energy Waste in UK Commercial Buildings

• In 2022, UK businesses lost an estimated £33.9 billion to wasted energy—much of it avoidable through better monitoring and control systems
• Up to 30% of energy used in commercial buildings is thought to be wasted through inefficiencies, equipment idling, and poor scheduling
• Small actionable changes—such as optimising schedule timing or preventing standby loads—can reduce energy bills by 2–10% annually
• More comprehensive energy management strategies can yield up to 20% savings on energy costs.

Environmental Benefits: Lower CO₂ Through Better Energy Management

Every percentage cut in energy use helps reduce carbon emissions. By closing the gap on wasted energy and optimising systems, businesses can contribute meaningfully to climate targets—especially as the UK works towards net-zero by 2050.

ISO 50001–compliant approaches help organisations structure continual improvement, with early case studies showing double-digit percent carbon reductions once certified.

Why Businesses Should Embrace Robust Energy Strategy

1. Cost-efficiency meets profitability: For every £1 wasted on energy, a business typically needs to earn £5–£10 in sales to maintain profit. A statistic that is often overlooked when measuring the true inpact of energy wastage. Cutting waste directly strengthens the bottom line

2. Future-proof compliance: A Building Energy Management System (BEMS) helps satisfy sustainability reporting, ESG metrics, and certification standards like BREEAM or ISO 50001

3. Stakeholder expectancy: Demonstrating energy-conscious governance enhances business reputation, appealing to clients, investors, and customers alike.

4. Operational insight: Systems show exactly where energy is consumed—from lights left on to systems running unused—unlocking actionable intelligence to close inefficiencies

In today’s energy-conscious and cost-sensitive climate, complacency is not an option. Businesses must understand where their energy is going—and take control. With Elcomponent’s tailored, technology-enabled energy management systems, organisations can find unnecessary expenditure but also contribute meaningfully to reducing the UK’s carbon output—while enhancing operational resilience and corporate reputation.

As energy costs continue to rise and carbon reduction targets loom, organisations with multiple buildings are under growing pressure to get a handle on their energy use. But achieving meaningful control and cost savings across a sprawling estate requires more than smart meters and good intentions. It demands a centralised, intelligent infrastructure—something that Elcomponent, one of the UK’s most experienced energy management providers, has been delivering for decades.

At the heart of this approach is the Energy Management System, or EMS. It’s a solution that turns energy data into actionable insight—helping businesses understand exactly how, when and where energy is being used, and more importantly, where it’s being wasted.

But what does an EMS actually involve? And how can it be effectively rolled out across multiple sites using the latest low-power, long-range communication technology like LoRaWAN? Here's how it works—and why it matters.

Understanding What an EMS Really Does

At its core, an Energy Management System is a combination of hardware, software and strategy. It’s designed to monitor and record energy consumption in real time, turning that information into insights that help reduce waste, cut carbon, and save money.

With a well-implemented EMS, businesses can visualise energy usage across every circuit, zone or site in their estate. Spikes in consumption can be flagged automatically. Heating and cooling systems can be optimised. Underperforming equipment can be identified and corrected. And all of it can be tracked through a central platform, helping organisations meet reporting obligations and sustainability goals with confidence.

The key to this is reliable, detailed data—and this is where LoRaWAN steps in.

Why LoRaWAN is a Game-Changer

LoRaWAN stands for Long Range Wide Area Network. It’s a wireless communication protocol that’s perfectly suited for transmitting small amounts of data—like energy readings—across long distances and through complex environments. Unlike Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, LoRaWAN devices can remain in place for years without needing a battery change or wired connection, making them ideal for energy monitoring.

This low-maintenance, high-coverage setup allows sensors to be installed throughout commercial buildings—whether they’re on a single site or spread across a national portfolio. They transmit data to a small number of strategically placed gateways, which then send it securely to a central platform for analysis.

For businesses operating across multiple premises—retail chains, logistics depots, healthcare estates, education campuses—LoRaWAN offers a scalable, non-intrusive way to connect every location into one unified monitoring system.

The Installation Process: Turning Buildings into Data-Driven Assets

At Elcomponent, the process of rolling out an EMS across a multi-site business begins with consultation. Every site is assessed individually to understand how energy is being used—and where the blind spots are. The team identifies metering points for electricity, gas, water and other utilities, and recommends the most effective layout for sensors and gateways.

Installation follows quickly, often with minimal disruption. Battery-powered sensors are placed at key points to track real-time usage—at the main incomer, individual distribution boards, lighting circuits, plant equipment or production lines. LoRaWAN gateways are installed discreetly to capture the data, usually connecting back to the cloud via broadband or 4G.

Once the network is live, data from every building is streamed into a secure, web-based dashboard. Facilities teams and energy managers can log in from anywhere to see detailed consumption patterns, detect anomalies, generate reports and compare performance between sites.

But the real value comes after installation.

Elcomponent provides training, support and strategic guidance to help organisations interpret and act on their data. It’s not just about having the numbers—it’s about knowing what to do with them.

From Data to Action: The Impact of Centralised Monitoring

The benefits of this type of system are significant. Businesses can expect to:

• Cut energy bills by up to 20% by identifying waste and inefficiency
• Reduce carbon emissions by lowering unnecessary consumption
• Avoid peak tariff charges by reshaping demand profiles
• Strengthen ESG reporting with accurate, real-time data
• Identify equipment faults before they become costly breakdowns

In short, a well-deployed EMS transforms energy from a cost centre into a source of operational insight.

The Future is Connected—and Measurable

In an era where sustainability, compliance and cost-efficiency are more important than ever, businesses can’t afford to guess at their energy use. They need data. They need visibility. And they need infrastructure that can grow with them.

By combining decades of expertise with cutting-edge LoRaWAN technology, Elcomponent delivers a solution that not only connects buildings—but empowers the people running them. Whether you’re managing five sites or fifty, it’s time to get serious about energy. Because what gets measured, gets managed—and what gets managed, gets saved.

To find out how Elcomponent can connect your sites and deliver real energy insight, get in touch for a consultation.

Before any sensors are installed, data captured, or dashboards launched, there’s a vital first step in the journey to energy efficiency: the site survey.
For businesses looking to reduce energy consumption, meet regulatory requirements, and achieve long-term carbon goals, a properly scoped and professionally executed energy management site survey is essential. At Elcomponent, this process forms the foundation of every energy management system (EMS) we design and install—whether for a single building or a multi-site operation.

Here’s what it involves, and why it matters.

Understanding the Purpose of the Site Survey

The site survey is more than just a walkaround. It’s a structured, data-led assessment that allows Elcomponent’s engineers to fully understand your energy infrastructure, building layout, operational routines, and energy usage patterns.

The goal? To design a system that gives you the most accurate, reliable, and useful data—so you can monitor, manage and optimise energy use with confidence.

What Does an Energy Management Site Survey Involve?

1. Mapping the Electrical Infrastructure
The first step is gaining a clear picture of how energy flows through your site. This means identifying:
• Incoming supply points and utility meters
• Main distribution boards (MDBs) and sub-distribution boards
• Key circuits, zones, or systems with significant energy draw
• Control panels and existing BMS (Building Management System) interfaces, if applicable

Elcomponent’s engineers will trace how your electricity, gas and (where relevant) water are distributed throughout the building(s), identifying the best points for sub-metering and real-time monitoring.

This mapping process is crucial—it ensures sensors are positioned where they will provide meaningful, actionable insights, not just redundant data.

2. Identifying High-Load and Critical Equipment
Next, we identify the systems and equipment that use the most energy—whether it’s a production line, HVAC system, commercial refrigeration unit, or lighting network.

Understanding where your biggest energy costs come from helps prioritise monitoring points. For example, if a large warehouse’s lighting makes up a disproportionate part of its energy bill, we’ll recommend installing sensors that track lighting zones and time-of-use patterns.

We also account for operational timing, noting whether your site runs 24/7, operates on shifts, or has irregular working hours that may affect energy demand.

3. Reviewing Site Layout and Physical Constraints
Unlike office installations, factories and industrial sites come with challenges: steel structures, machinery vibrations, high ceilings, remote areas, or sensitive environments. During the site survey, Elcomponent identifies these physical constraints and uses them to determine:

• The number and location of LoRaWAN gateways required for full coverage
• Where sensors can be mounted safely and accessibly
• Cabling routes or points of power supply (for any hardwired components)
• Wi-Fi, 4G, or ethernet availability for data transmission

In short, we assess how to install the EMS with minimal disruption to operations, while ensuring maximum performance and longevity.

4. Assessing Existing Metering and Systems
If your site already has some level of metering, we won’t duplicate it—we’ll assess how to integrate or upgrade what’s already in place.

That might mean:
• Incorporating existing meters into a new central dashboard
• Replacing outdated or incompatible sensors
• Adding pulse output devices or CT clamps to extract data from analogue meters
• Linking with your existing BMS for a seamless user experience

We also evaluate the best method for data retrieval and platform access—whether that’s cloud-based reporting, direct data push, or API integration into your own systems.

5. Establishing Reporting and Insight Goals
Not all clients want the same thing from an EMS. Some need high-level performance dashboards for board reports. Others want real-time alerts to drive operational changes. During the site survey, Elcomponent’s team works with your energy, estates or facilities teams to understand your:

• Compliance requirements (e.g. SECR, ESOS)
• ESG or CSR goals
• Budget parameters
• Preferences for reporting detail, frequency and delivery

This ensures the system we install isn’t just technically sound—it’s genuinely useful for your business.

What Happens Next?
Once the survey is complete, Elcomponent provides:

• A detailed technical proposal outlining the EMS design
• A sensor and gateway specification
• A roll-out plan and timeline for installation
• Optional services such as commissioning, training, and ongoing support

Because the survey is rooted in practical understanding—tailored to your site, your operations, and your goals—it leads to an EMS that’s accurate, scalable, and cost-effective from day one.
