Introduction – Third Sector/Charities
The rise in energy costs is predicted to become a major issue for all charitable organisations in exactly the same way that it has done for businesses.
In November 2010 the Forum for Private Business reported that increased costs such as raw materials, fuel and energy are leading to businesses seeing a weakening in profitability – for charitable organisations this means that there is less money available for you to provide your services to the people who need them. Since that announcement energy costs have risen by over 15% and the long term trend for energy costs is for increases year on year.
As ground source heat pumps allow you to generate your own heat and power, this significantly reduces how much energy you need from your gas or electric company – or in the case of people with oil fired heating systems, removes that cost entirely. This could protect your organisation from future energy rises, ensuring that you can protect the revenue that you bring in for your operations from the volatility of the energy markets.
If you own your building, you could potentially take advantage of the benefits that a ground source heat pump could bring. We can perform a feasibility assessment of your building and the ground that it stands on, to work out whether a ground source heat pump could pay dividends for you.
Ground Source Heat Pumps can Support Charities/Third Sector Organisations
Ground source heat pumps are expensive, in the region of tens of thousands of pounds, so a feasibility assessment of hundreds of pounds now could prevent you wasting money.
We have no ties to any particular supplier and our aim is not to sell you a ground source heat pump. You can be sure that the advice you receive from us will be objective and tailored to provide the best possible outcome for your business.
First we will need some details about your organisation to make the assessment.
Please call one of our consultants on 01273 699399, we will discuss your requirement and fill in a form for you.
We will then e-mail this form to you to confirm your requirements.
If you are happy with the requirements that we have collected, you can post your agreement by sending back an e-mail to gshp@gesl.net with a Purchase Order (PO) number and we will commence the feasibility assessment.
Third Sector/Charities – The Process
Geo-Environmental Sciences offer a fully managed service with all costs accounted for and all parts of the process managed by ourselves. We started providing this service in response to requests from clients who had received a GSHP quote, but then had to arrange their own feasibility study, drillers for implementation and then co-ordinate all of the different suppliers. This is difficult for many organisations to manage, as it is outside the remit of their core business activities and the process seemed to be starting in the wrong place, so we put together this service to rectify the problem.
