Utility management specialists Control Energy Costs (CEC) is setting its sights on further expansion after setting up a new Yorkshire operation.

CEC, which works with hundreds of manufacturers across the country every year, has set up a team of analysts to work with local companies on addressing some of the crippling energy costs that are plaguing industrial growth.

With more than 30 Yorkshire companies already signed up, receiving potential savings of over £500,000 to date, CEC believes there is now significant opportunity to support businesses coming out of 24-36 month contracts that are likely to face up to 50% cost increases due to the rising price of energy.

“This investment in creating a dedicated team and hot-desking space is our way of proving our commitment to the region,” Liam Conway, Head of CEC, said.

“Industry is our big focus and we have enjoyed a lot of success in the West Midlands and the South East, helping firms reduce their energy costs through careful planning, negotiating the best possible deals and smart energy management.”

He continued: “There are some fantastic firms at the cutting edge of engineering and innovation in Yorkshire and we know from talking to local business leaders that there is an appetite for a reduction in energy bills and processes that are kinder to the environment.”
