Q3’s engineering team works in partnership with energy specialists ETS, to deliver energy efficiency and decarbonisation services for your organisation.
Whatever the sector in which you operate, your location, or the size of your business, our team will be able identify and address inefficiencies,and introduce programmes to better manage your energy consumption. And we can deliver energy services within an existing integrated FM or hard services contract or delivered through a series of stand-alone projects. The goal is the same… to help your organisation manage the carbon footprint of its real estate operation more efficiently and support your journey to Net Zero.
‘‘Inadequate initial commissioning, operational issues and real-time performance degradation is estimated to increase energy consumption by 15 to 30 percent in commercial buildings.”
– CIBSE
Today, buildings generate massive data that’s accessible to maximise the potential for remote control, comfort management, lighting management, IoT sensors, fire systems, and security systems. BEMS (Building Energy Management Systems) integrate software and hardware seamlessly, allowing all that data to be translated into an actionable building optimisation plan.
Our holistic approach can make up the energy performance gap for your buildings and maximise the value of this data. The journey starts with an overall audit, including data collection, and upgrade action plan to uncover the most valuable opportunities for your commercial real estate.
A comprehensive energy audit and detailed on-site energy surveys are a critical starting point, incorporating energy data analysis, load profiling, identifying significant energy users (SEU), and examining all energy-consuming systems like pumps, fans, compressed air, HVAC, refrigeration, lighting, steam and industrial processes. This provides an accurate picture of your buildings’ energy performance, providing the foundation for our building optimisation team to implement energy-saving initiatives that will optimise energy consumption and reduce costs.
Our end-to-end energy management support through your operation lifecycle, involves condition-based reports that give you a better understanding of equipment and ongoing maintenance and monitoring that provide you with complete visibility and control. We aim to promote a healthy and thriving ecosystem within and around the building, which supports business growth, improves air quality, reduces energy costs, and enhances the overall aesthetics and functionality of the space. We are here to help build resilience and futureproof your buildings for years to come
Decarbonising your buildings will reduce your energy bills and help you adhere to sustainable compliance and environmental regulations, which is profitable and a long-term win. Our sustainability team can guide you through the latest ESG compliances and map out your Net Zero objectives, energy usage analysis, and carbon strategy evaluation – helping you become a sustainability leader in your field.
We offer ESOS guidance and SECR reporting for large companies, and we can apply ISO50001 to all processes. Implementing a well-structured Energy Management System (EnMS) can empower your real estate and harness of energy data analytics.
We are dedicated to improving operational efficiency, helping you realise the huge opportunities possible through building decarbonisation. We focus on enhancing building materials, HVAC systems, lighting upgrades, renewables and new technologies to reduce energy consumption and improve overall performance and comfort conditions. To accelerate the integration of renewable energy and progress towards achieving Net Zero, the feasibility assessment will include a calculation of the return on investment and explore possibilities at scale.
Q3 is a great business to work with and to work for. We were set up by a group of people motivated by experience to create a very different type of Facilities Management company. Here you’ll find out more about us and how we work. If that’s not enough, contact us
