We offer a range of decarbonisation products and services to help you take control of your energy and reduce operating costs.

With your objectives in mind, you can improve your building's overall EPC rating, futureproof it against changing energy legislation, increase rental value, and tackle your building's Scope 1 emissions. 

To decarbonise your building GCES can: 

  • Design a simple and cost-effective solution bespoke to your building and needs.
  • Install the latest green energy-saving or generating technology to reduce/remove the need for burning expensive and dirty fossil fuels.  
  • Retrofit and upgrade inefficient electric motors and outdated heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.
  • Incorporate the installation of state-of-the-art building energy management systems (BEMS) to monitor and adapt where and when you are using energy.  
  • Upgrade existing inefficient building services systems.

Building Energy Management Systems (BEMS)

Manage and understand your energy with the installation of a digital system that monitors and analyses your energy use. This allows you to control your energy and identify areas of waste. 

Heat Pump Technology

Retrofit and install heat pumps to circulate heat to key parts of your building. This is installed as a low-emission alternative to fossil fuel-powered technology.  

Photovoltaic (PV) Panels and Solar PV

Take advantage of underutilized land and space with the installation of photovoltaic (PV) panels and solar PV on land or building roofs to create an on-site source of heat and electricity. 

Battery Storage

Install battery banks to store the energy you generate for future use, or bank low-cost energy from the grid for use during peak times. 

Electric Motors

Retrofit motors to highly efficient electric motors on pump sets and HVAC systems, working with our HVAC partner Future Motors installing Turntide smart motor systems™.

Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC)

Move away from a reliance on fossil fuels with an upgraded HVAC system that uses modern technology, and electric motors that reduce waste energy.

LED Lighting

Replace your energy-heavy fluorescent lighting with new efficient LED luminaires. These typically require less maintenance and can easily be integrated with BEMS and motion sensors.  

Ensure savings and success beyond the installation, with the maintenance of any newly installed green tech, existing mechanical, and electrical building services system.

Keeping ahead of legislation 

Government legislation requires a minimum energy efficiency standard to be met on all properties, and an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is required on all rental properties. 

Our services produce a plan and implement the changes, these will bring you in line with the required standards. They can also exceed the minimum standards in anticipation of any business-specific targets to support government goals of achieving net zero by 2050, or to support your own environmental goals.
