Case Study
School Business Professionals are increasingly challenged to balance shrinking budgets and escalating operating costs.
However, energy is an area that offers opportunities to protect school budgets through a competitive tender process that proactively secures prices that take advantage of low wholesale market positions where possible.
£12,000 estimated energy savings over a 12-month contract compared to another similar school that remained within the previous portfolio.
Zenergi’s hands-on services and commitment to exceptional customer service support an increasing portfolio of five secondary and ten primary schools within London Borough of Redbridge to save money on their energy and water.
One of those schools, Woodbridge High Schoo Woodbridge High School was procuring its energy as part of a framework. It meant that the school had limited options for its energy renewal and lacked visibility for energy budgeting.
Zenergi supported the school’s exit from the local authority framework with a 12-month contract that saved the school an estimated £12,000 when compared, as fairly as possible, to another similar school that remained within the previous portfolio
Woodbridge High School continues to enjoy a highly productive working partnership with Zenergi, whose advice and guidance proved to be invaluable during a time of extreme budget pressures on the education industry. They identified the best value electricity, gas and water contracts for the school to enable considerable financial savings. Their ongoing performance monitoring of our contracts proves to be helpful as we seek to become more energy efficient. An extremely efficient team of consultants is readily available to support the school and nothing is too much trouble. I thoroughly recommend the Zenergi service.
