Consultancy – Initially this is achieved by with some basic calculations from information you provide though more detailed and accurate analysis requires one or more levels of energy audit in accordance with AS/NZS 3598:2000 Energy assessment will determine your energy consumption quantities and costs while highlighting efficiency levels and areas that can be targeted for savings.

Researching & implementing an energy management plan can seem somewhat overwhelming initially but once you establish an understanding of the process and the costing you will find its time & money well spent. The worst thing you can do is to do nothing!! Allowing your business to fall behind, to suffer inevitable increases in power costs and even be branded as environmentally unfriendly

Design – Load monitoring, carbon blueprints or simply put energy consumption & emissions are the factors we need to ascertain in the design process. At the same time using a systems approach we’re building an understanding of how our consumption (and subsequent emissions) are being used (and produced). Depending on your installation/premises, design can encompass anything from retrofitting more efficient lamps to the installation of variable speed drives (VSD’s) on your heating & cooling (HVAC) arrangements. Poor control, excess usage & inefficiency are all major contributors to your power consumption

With each solution tailored to meet your organizations budgetary & environmental requirements you can rest assured with a good working knowledge of how your energy plan is working for you, your business, home and the environment


Implementation – While minimising environmental impact is of great value and importance so to is our approach. This needs to be measured & achieved in context of budgetary considerations establishing a base from which future energy savings and potential can be seen and achieved. To put your energy management plan into practice don’t just call any electrician, call a specialist EcoSmart Electrician

What type of solution might be recommended?
Following an audit there are a range of different recommendations that may be beneficial in meeting your energy management goals, for example:

• Retrofitting lamps and/or light fittings of more efficient types
• Installation of automation & auto-sensing devices
• Educational/awareness seminars for employees
• Reductions in lighting levels
• Installation of photovoltaic (solar) grid connected systems
• Programmed maintenance strategies
• Functional and operational changes to HVAC systems
• More efficient use & selection processes for appliances
• Power factor correction & harmonic rectification
• Phase balancing

What other types of services might apply to me?
Using Electricity subjects you & your business to many potential hazards. Scheduled or programmed maintenance can identify potential disasters.

• Thermographic imaging, sometimes called FLIR (Forward Looking InfraRed) offers a non-invasive, preventative maintenance strategy that identifies (potentially dangerous) "hot spots" in electrical connections and manufacturing processes while equipment is still operational. The value of this service speaks for itself if you consider the losses in production from an unscheduled electrical fault (or disaster). This service provides you with results and recommendations.
• Power Factor Correction
  Power factor is a measure of how effectively your electricity is used. You can effectively reduce the load on your electrical distribution infrastructure/system by optimising your power factor
• OH&S
  Electrical safety audits, periodic testing & tagging of equipment
