CASE STUDY
Primary School
This cross-community grammar primary school embarked on an ambitious project to slash energy costs and boost sustainability. By installing state-of-the-art, energy-efficient lighting, the school achieved a remarkable improvement in light quality, cut lighting costs significantly, and is set to reduce carbon emissions by 336 tonnes over five years. This remarkable initiative, reducing electricity use for lighting, translates to over £24,000 of annual energy savings. They worked closely with ELS and the lighting provider, we tailored a 7-year agreement ensuring financial positivity throughout its term.
CASE STUDY
Multi Academy Trust
This school trust, encompassing four environmentally conscious schools, committed to enhancing their sustainability while enriching the learning environment. Driven by the goal to minimise their carbon footprint and energy usage, the trust invested in an LED lighting upgrade across all schools, executed with minimal disruption. This strategic move not only improved lighting quality but also achieved a remarkable 63% reduction in lighting costs, translating to £251,005 in savings over a decade. Furthermore, this initiative significantly cut carbon emissions by 560 tonnes, showcasing the trust's dedication to environmental stewardship and fiscal responsibility.
CASE STUDY
Primary School
A Primary School in North Somerset installed a 50 kW Solar PV system, which is the first community-owned school solar system in the area. The installation includes 194 panels and generates around 37,020 kWh annually
This project helps the school save on energy costs and reduce carbon emissions by approximately 22,195 kg of CO2 per year. The system also includes an online monitoring system and a real-time display in the school’s reception to engage students and staff in sustainability education.
CASE STUDY
Packaging Company
A UK packaging company installed a Solar PV system, financed over an 84-month term through ELS. The system significantly reduced the company’s energy costs, leading to net savings of £165,173.68 over the agreement period.
This installation not only lowered operational expenses but also supported the company's sustainability goals by reducing its carbon footprint, showcasing the financial and environmental benefits of Solar PV leasing.
CASE STUDY
Independent Hotel
An independent hotel was looking to not only reduce their significant energy bills but also cut their carbon emissions as part of their eco friendly drive.
Using Voltage Optimisation they reduced their consumption by almost 8%, carbon emissions by over 35 tonnes and within 8 months had covered the intial outlay.
CASE STUDY
Large Manufacturer
A large manufacturer was working towards being carbon neutral and wanted to optimise equipment efficiency and waste.
With Voltage Optimisation they were able to reduce energy consumption by over 10%. In tandem their carbon emissions were cut by over 25 tonnes. A fantastic result and they will benefit from extended equipment life.

Energy Equipment Leasing
Energy equipment leasing allows businesses and institutions to acquire renewable energy technologies, such as LED lighting and solar PV systems, without paying upfront costs. Instead, the costs are spread over a fixed term, typically 2-7 years, with manageable monthly payments.
Leasing provides immediate access to energy-saving technologies with no upfront costs. The energy savings often outweigh the lease payments, leading to positive cash flow from day one. Additionally, lease payments are 100% tax deductible.
ELS offers leasing options for a wide range of energy equipment, including LED lighting, solar PV systems, battery storage, biomass boilers, heat pumps, and emerging technologies like hydrogen generators.
The process is straightforward: after an initial consultation, ELS provides a tailored quote. Once the quote is accepted, we handle the credit approval and paperwork. Upon installation completion, your invoices are paid within 24-48 hours.
Our voltage optimisation finance solutions allow you to get the equipment you need to help reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions, supporting your sustainability goals.
At the end of the lease term, you may have options to purchase the equipment at a residual value, renew the lease, or return the equipment depending on your agreement.
A school partnered with ELS to lease LED lighting, resulting in a 63% reduction in lighting costs. Over ten years, the school saved £251,005 while also reducing its carbon footprint. The savings from the energy-efficient lighting outweighed the lease payments, making the project cash positive from the start. Read more on the School Case Studies
