One of the few costs a business can still permanently reduce.
Offices, warehouses, industrial units, retail and mixed-use.
For most commercial operators, energy sits behind payroll and premises as a cost — and unlike those two, it’s one where a capital investment can permanently reduce the monthly figure.
ENCON delivers energy upgrades and construction works across commercial property: offices, warehouses, industrial units, retail premises and mixed-use buildings. The work ranges from lighting and controls through to full fabric upgrades, heat pump installations, solar PV and building refurbishment.
Commercial buildings differ from homes in ways that change the answer. Occupancy patterns are different, plant is bigger, hot water and process loads can dwarf space heating, and the building often has to keep trading throughout. The survey accounts for all of that before anything is specified.
Ranked by payback against your tariff, not a generic model.
Where we typically find the most value in commercial premises:
We rank these by payback against your actual tariff and consumption, so the investment case is built on your numbers rather than a generic model.
From insulation to heat pumps, ventilation and more. Improve comfort, lower bills and increase your BER rating.
New builds, extensions and deep retrofits, fully managed from design and planning through to construction and completion.
High-quality solar panel systems for homes, farms and businesses. Lower energy costs and gain energy independence.
Energy upgrades and construction solutions for commercial, agricultural and public sector projects.
Commercial projects carry constraints domestic ones don’t. Trading hours, stock, staff, customers, insurance, and a landlord or tenant on the other side of the lease.
We phase works around all of it — out of hours, in sections, over shutdown periods, or building by building across a portfolio. Most of our commercial clients trade right through the works.
Who pays and who benefits is frequently the obstacle rather than the technical work. We’re used to projects structured across both sides of a lease and can help frame the case for whichever party is carrying it.
Energy performance now shows up in tenders, lease negotiations, lending and sustainability reporting. Upgrades produce documentation you can actually use, and we provide it as part of handover rather than as an afterthought.
Non-domestic schemes cover a range of measures. We confirm what applies, handle the application and manage the compliance evidence.
Rarely. Works are phased around trading, and most commercial clients stay open throughout.
Usually lighting and controls, particularly with long operating hours. The survey confirms it for your building.
It can be, depending on lease length and terms. We’ll help you build the case and structure it across landlord and tenant where relevant.
Yes, through non-domestic schemes. We’ll confirm what currently applies to your measures.
Yes. Portfolio-wide programmes are straightforward and usually produce better value than site-by-site procurement.
