THE PROBLEM

The cost of energy in the UK is simply too high. With global energy demand surging, supply hasn’t been able to keep pace.

The UK, as a major gas importer, has been hit hard by these fluctuations, contributing to higher costs for businesses already hit hard by years of low growth and the global pandemic.

Ongoing armed conflicts in major oil and gas producing regions of the world only serve to exacerbate the problem. On top of all of that, most estimates suggest that up to 25% of business energy bills in the UK are incorrect. UK businesses need affordable, common-sense solutions about how to save money on their energy costs today, they can’t wait for tomorrow.

THE SOLUTION

The energy savings solutions industry is experiencing a period of rapid growth and technological advancement. Proven solutions which guarantee savings for UK businesses such as transformer-based technology like Voltage Optimisation which reduces energy consumption on a user’s site by adjusting and controlling voltage levels, are readily available in the market today.

Similarly, increased demand for green energy coupled with mounting governmental and institutional support has triggered a surge of investment in new technologies and driven down the prices around foundation green energy solutions like Solar PV and battery storage. All of this in combination means that UK business have options to drive down their energy costs and consumption right now without the need for major capital investment.

WHY GRIDSTORM, WHY NOW?

Energy is one of the biggest operational costs for UK businesses and is continuing to rise. Unlike household energy bills, businesses do not benefit from a price cap to protect them from soaring bills.

At the same time, consumers of these business’s products and services are changing. In a survey conducted in 2024, 60% of UK businesses reported that higher energy prices have forced them to increase their product or service prices. This not only affects their competitiveness but also influences consumer behaviour.

Equally revealing in a 2023 survey conducted by next-gen experience management firm, First Insight, was the discovery that nearly two-thirds of UK consumer respondents said that they value product sustainability over brand name. Consumers are prepared, even in these difficult financial times, to address their concerns over sustainability and ethical practices through their shopping intentions.
