Energy Management
Good energy management lowers your energy bill and carbon footprint. Take control of your technical systems and improve occupant satisfaction across your properties.
What is energy management?
Energy management is a process that improves energy efficiency in line with your business requirements. We act as your outsourced energy expert, consulting on everything from reducing consumption to energy procurement.
Energy management builds competitive advantage and helps manage risk. We make sure your operations meet your organisation’s sustainability targets and keep pace with current and upcoming regulation. We follow technology developments closely and share what we learn for your benefit.
Improving energy efficiency lowers your energy bills and carbon emissions while increasing the value of your properties.

Strategic development
At a strategic level, energy management is treated as a long term part of your core business.
Our work is based on market analysis, regulation and benchmarks from your industry peers.
The themes and targets that matter to your organisation are defined, along with the roles different people play in energy efficiency work.
The resulting development plan sets out the practical actions that put your strategy into practice.
Progress is tracked and steered through a group that meets regularly. The action plan can be updated as the market or regulation changes.
Example
A strategic target may be to cut energy consumption by 10% over the next five years, or to raise the energy performance rating across the entire property portfolio. From there, the actions that get your maintenance organisation to that target are defined. A first concrete step might be rolling out energy monitoring across every property.
Property-level development
Property-level development brings concrete savings and raises the standard of conditions on site. It reduces environmental impact and improves occupant satisfaction.
Our specialists make sure each individual property has a plan that follows your overall strategy, with the right metrics to match.
Targets are set for improving each property’s energy efficiency and occupant satisfaction. The most suitable solutions are identified, along with guidance on procurement.
Project management and construction
Our consultants make sure strategic decisions are carried through as effectively as possible in construction projects, whether that means a new build or an existing property.
A strategic target might be that 50% of properties reach energy performance rating A. Our energy specialists analyse how to reach the target for each property and identify the smartest solutions.
Energy procurement
Your agreements with energy companies are checked to make sure they support your sustainability targets and match your actual needs.
If switching to dynamic pricing is of interest, your property’s demand flexibility is evaluated to make sure it’s sufficient to capture the full financial benefit.
Operational development
Our energy consultants make sure you don’t have to struggle with the practical side of putting energy efficiency into action.
As a service, Energy Management also supports the running of your maintenance organisation and service network. Roles and responsibilities for energy efficiency work are clearly defined. What does maintenance handle day to day? What metrics are needed to guide operations?
Energy Management also helps manage subcontracting and service agreements. Recommendations are given on actions such as opening a new contract to tender or reshaping existing agreements to better support your strategic targets.
Reporting
Our energy management reports make it easy and efficient to track progress against your strategy and targets. Granlund has spent years developing visually advanced BI reports that turn data into an easily understood format.
Reports can include analysis of your data against chosen frameworks and metrics, show trends and make it easy to compare against past performance.
