Please note: The savings in this report are an estimate only. For more detailed assessments further surveys and context specific study would be needed. The savings for each technology are based on industry benchmarks and the average savings achieved for our existing clients. Savings from certain renewable technologies have been excluded since more detailed information and variables than could be incorporated into the survey are needed to provide quality estimates. Unless you specified your unit energy prices, average Department of Energy statistics price of gas and electricity spend per unit in 2009 was used which was 7.291p per kWh for electricity and 2.585p per kWh for gas.
