Energy optimisation
Find where energy is lost across furnaces, heat recovery, steam and compression, and rank what to change.

Discuss this service“We’re using more energy than we should”
Energy losses are spread across furnaces, exchangers, steam headers and compressors, and they change as the plant moves. We build an energy balance from your data and test each opportunity against your operating limits.
A good fit when
- Fuel, power or steam is a major operating cost
- You need to support energy or emissions targets
- You want opportunities ranked before committing capital
How the work runs
Timing is a planning estimate, confirmed after the first stage.
| When | Work | You can review |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1 | Set the boundary and baseline, and check meters | Energy baseline and data-quality report |
| Stage 2 | Build the site or unit energy balance | Map of where energy goes |
| Stage 3 | Model each opportunity against operating limits | Tested list of opportunities |
| Stage 4 | Review the list with your engineers | Ranked plan |
What we need
- Fuel, steam and power measurements
- Key temperatures, pressures and flows
- Equipment data for furnaces, exchangers and compressors
- Your site’s energy prices and operating limits
What you keep
- Energy balance you can rerun
- Ranked opportunities, using your site’s prices
- Assumptions and limits behind each estimate
Agreed before we start
- Energy baseline and its boundary
- Prices and carbon costs to use
- Operating limits that can’t be crossed
When we’d stop
If key energy streams aren’t metered, we’ll narrow the boundary or recommend the measurements to add first.
