The Project
Galliford Try manage the facilities for two private finance initiative secondary schools. In a time of rising energy costs, the schools were keen to reduce running costs and carbon emissions and to engage building users. Anthesis supported Galliford Try with the application of a total energy management service for the schools to manage utilities, provide cost reductions and ongoing support, investment and advice.
Key Services Delivered
- Anthesis undertook an audit of the two schools and reviewed the electricity, gas and water usage
- Tailored a Carbon Management Action Plan (CMAP) for each school, outlining key carbon and water-saving actions
- Monitoring equipment was installed to collect detailed energy data and allow for both analysis of consumption and the monthly reporting of savings
- Anthesis took over the Building Management System (BMS) service contract, with Boss Controls providing continuity on site
Key Project Outputs
- Anthesis installed insulation in the boiler rooms, optimised the BMS and worked with Boss Controls to upgrade equipment and identify further improvements
- Installed urinal control equipment, installed voltage optimisation and reviewed catering, ICT and small power equipment
