Milbank Concrete Products is one of the UK’s leading manufacturers of high-quality precast concrete products. They provide a range of standardised and specialist precast concrete products across the UK.
Following on from their extensive efforts to decarbonise the business through biomass and energy control systems, the client sought our help to reduce electricity consumption as effectively as possible. The approach we took ensured that we understood their targets, projected growth of the business and any local grid restraints to design a system that would work favourably for them. The resulting system will play an important part in reaching their sustainability goals, but ultimately, it also meets business requirements with an equally attractive payback.
“We have been proactive in adapting our processes to work towards carbon neutrality. We know that the work is never done, but we’ve made a great start. We recently teamed up with Energy Gain UK who installed a number of solar panels to the roof of our prestressed concrete factory with the aim of achieving a saving of approximately 200,000 kWh, equating to ~50% of our total energy usage, every year. This is a huge stepping stone towards us reaching our sustainability goals and the entire installation process from Energy Gain UK, including activation and connection, was flawless. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to partner with a professional and reliable carbon and energy management business.”
