What Does Commercial Voltage Optimisation Do?
The UK grid supplies electricity at up to 253 volts. Most commercial equipment is designed to run efficiently at around 220 volts. That gap is wasted energy — and you're paying for every unit of it.
A voltage optimisation unit installs between your meter and distribution board
It reduces incoming supply to the optimal level for your equipment
Your electrical loads consume less energy without any change to how they operate
Savings begin from the day the system goes live
Rural and older commercial buildings across the region are particularly likely to receive supply at the higher end of the permitted voltage range
Who We Work With in Dundee
Voltage optimisation delivers the strongest return where there are significant voltage-dependent electrical loads running consistently through the working day.
Agricultural and Food Production Businesses
Dumfries and Galloway's agricultural and food processing sector runs consistent, energy-intensive loads throughout the working day
Motors, refrigeration, processing equipment, and pumping systems all respond well to voltage reduction
Rural supply infrastructure in the region often delivers electricity at higher voltages — leaving significant room for savings
Industrial and Warehouse Operators
Electric motors, compressors, and refrigeration across Dumfries's industrial and logistics sites are strong candidates
Older buildings in the region are particularly likely to benefit
Commercial Premises and SMEs
HVAC systems, older lighting, and resistive heating loads all benefit from optimised voltage
Suitable for offices, trade counters, and any building with consistent electrical demand across Dumfries and Galloway

FAQs
What is voltage optimisation and how does it work?
1
The UK grid supplies electricity at up to 253 volts. Most commercial equipment runs efficiently at around 220 volts. A voltage optimisation unit reduces your incoming supply to that optimal level — cutting consumption without changing how anything in your building operates.
Are you based near Dumfries?
2
We're based in Glasgow — Dumfries is well within our regular operational territory. We serve businesses across the south of Scotland regularly and our engineers cover the area as part of our normal operations.
How do I know if my site is suitable?
3
The two key factors are your incoming voltage level and the types of electrical loads in your building. Motors, older lighting, compressors, and resistive heating respond well. Modern LED lighting and variable speed drives respond less. A site survey gives you a definitive answer before any commitment.
How long does installation take?
4
Most commercial voltage optimisation installations are completed in a single day. The main requirement is a planned shutdown of the electrical supply for the installation and commissioning period.
Is there any disruption to my business?
5
Minimal. The planned shutdown is typically a few hours. Beyond that, the system runs in the background with no ongoing disruption or management required.
What is the payback period?
6
For suitable sites, typically under two years. The exact figure depends on your consumption, your tariff, and your incoming voltage level — all of which we assess during the site survey.
