BiU SMARTservices

SMARTservices is a product developed by BIU in recognition of the major changes which will affect all companies due to new legislation which becomes effective in the energy market from April 2019 and brings together a multitude of mandatory and voluntary legislation.

BIU SMARTservices allows an organisation to go beyond compliance and benefit from real commercial implementation opportunities which the latest legislation from BEIS is designed to encourage. The product is built around a three year agreement and recognises that for a customer with a complex energy position a quick fix strategy is neither realistic nor possible and can only be achieved with a true working partnership. A three year agreement allows BIU to invest in our customers, to correctly scope the project and to agree the deliverables with all stakeholders in the customer’s business. BIU SMARTservices are designed to protect our customers from the legal implications of non-compliance with statutory legislation. As well as managing compliance in our 21 years of experience we have never found a site which is not wasting energy. To its credit the new legislation from the department of Business Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) is intended to encourage energy efficiency so that increases in the Climate Change Levy (CCL) will be fiscally neutral.

BIU SMARTservices allows a company to go further than a neutral position and to realise real savings together with 100% compliance. The product is always personalised to the customer in consideration of both the energy requirements, the complexity of the business, the number of sites and the approach to the share of implemented savings by the customer, against realistic and sometimes ambitious targets. BIU are very proud of the fact that over 500 ESOS Phase 1 Compliance Audits completed for our customers achieved 100% first time acceptance with no remedial actions. An important additional and unique feature of BIU SMARTservices is the BIU Reactive Energy Management Team which allows BIU to send its own trained personnel to the sites of our customers at no upfront cost to the customer with savings being shared between BIU and the customer. BIU SMARTservices is not just a word but our approach to how we add value for our customers.
