Capacity Review
Managing peak electricity demand is critical to controlling overall energy costs. We help businesses optimise Available Supply Capacity (ASC) to reduce charges, avoid penalties, and improve cost efficiency.
Managing peak electricity demand is critical to controlling overall energy costs. We help businesses optimise Available Supply Capacity (ASC) to reduce charges, avoid penalties, and improve cost efficiency.
Energy costs extend beyond just unit rates and standing charges - optimising Available Supply Capacity (ASC) is key to reducing peak demand costs and avoiding unnecessary charges.
Businesses with half-hourly metered electricity supplies must set an ASC with their Distribution Network Operator (DNO), reflecting maximum kVA demand at their site. Ensuring this is accurately set prevents overpayment or penalties.
