What Ecopare Ltd does

Ecopare Ltd is a UK-based energy efficiency consultancy founded in 2010 and headquartered in Guildford, Surrey. The company delivers practical energy reduction and Net-Zero solutions to industrial, commercial, and education clients across the United Kingdom, with reported outcomes including 48% average savings across its last 100 projects, 389,000 LED lamps installed since 2014, and over 4 MWh of annual energy savings delivered to industrial customers.

The core service portfolio spans three interconnected lines: (1) Energy and Sustainability Auditing, including ESOS-compliant audits, thermographic surveys, and IPMVP measurement and verification delivered by CMVP-certified consultants; (2) Smart Metering and IoT solutions, including the award-winning Lean Energy Management system that produces machine- or process-line-level energy profiles from wired and wireless sensors; and (3) LED Lighting Solutions, covering audit, photometric design (Dialux/Relux), installation by in-house SafeContractor/NAPIT-qualified electricians, controls, and BS 5266-1 emergency lighting. The company added Electric Vehicle Charging services in 2019 and has extended into solar PV, heat pumps, and heat recovery solutions.

Ecopare generates revenue through project-based professional services and hardware-enabled installations sold via direct field sales (enterprise industrial and multi-site education), inside sales (SME and single-site education), and grant-assisted SMB engagements. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific, with free lighting surveys used as lead generation and Carbon Trust grants (up to £10,000, covering ~40% of project costs) supporting SME uptake. Named customers include Jaguar Land Rover, Pilkington, Evotec, Morgan Furniture, G-Live, TW Metals, and a roster of UK schools and academies.
