Clarke Controls, a leading manufacturer and installer of commercial Energy Management Systems (EMS), is helping Wickes achieve its sustainability goals and cut energy bills, by providing cutting-edge heating controls at over 200 sites across the country.
Clarke Controls are expecting that the state-of-the-art zoned control system will reduce Wickes’ energy use for heating by around 25% across all 200 sites, while keeping the Wickes team warm and comfortable. Cutting energy use will have a big impact on Wickes’ carbon footprint, as the company works towards its ambitious sustainability goals.
Clarke Controls’ innovative solutions not only enhance sustainability but also deliver substantial cost savings for Wickes. By prioritising efficiency and environmental responsibility, Wickes looks set to achieve significant savings on energy spend for heating annually, reinforcing the notion that sustainability and economic viability go hand in hand.
Ceri Davies, Head of Procurement at Wickes said: “Decarbonising our sites is an essential part of our Built to Last responsible business strategy – and this means taking steps to reduce our energy use and cut waste wherever we can. Clarke Controls have transformed the way we control our heating at sites around the UK – making the systems more efficient and targeted to keep wasted energy to a minimum. The initial results are very promising, and we’re on track to deliver significant energy, carbon and cost savings, year after year.”
The partnership involved 100 new installations and the upgrade of 100 existing controls, revolutionising Wickes’ approach to energy management and sustainability at sites across the country.
