Five Reasons Why Storage Could Fail for your Business

Compliance

Did you know that within a year, the introduction of new legislation makes carbon reduction a priority? The Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC) binds large organisations into purchasing carbon allowances to cover their carbon emissions. At the end of each year, each of the companies in the scheme will receive either a bonus or a penalty based on how well they have performed. 

It is worth noting, however, that currently the scheme only affects larger organisations – to quote www.carbontrust.co.uk “In its current proposed format, the CRC will cover all organisations whose electricity consumption through half hourly meters is greater than 6,000MWh/yr – equivalent to an annual electricity bill of ~£500k.” I can’t help but dwell on the ‘in its current format’ part of that statement…

The crux of all these initiatives is that by streamlining the way you manage your storage, and thinking smarter, you can ensure that your storage environment compliments your business, rather than restricting it.
