Bringing Energy Savings to light
Hidden CostsLighting is a significant part of the operating costs to business, it is often unforeseen and taken for granted
With the progress in LED / High Bay technology there is now a real opportunity to reduce costs and improve the working environment in factories, offices, restaurants, pubs & external areas

Stingray High Bay Endorsement
Verified Environmental ClaimsThe Stingray high bay electronic (HBE) has a patented reflector system (SRS) it is a twin reflector system that is easily adjusted to suit the light level required for the task. The light fitting utilises a lower wattage lamp than conventional high bay fittings whilst maintaining the required light levels with the patented reflector system
The Stingray SRS high bay series 250 watt will reduce consumption and CO2 emissions compared to conventional magnetic discharge HID
fittings
Standard conventional high bay luminaires of 400 watt rating can be replaced with the 250 watt Stingray delivering a typical energy saving of 41%

Carbon Trust Loans
Business loans of £1,000 upwards are available from the Energy Efficiency Financing Scheme to help organisations finance and investin energy saving projects
You can borrow a minimum of £1,000, with no upper cap Anticipated energy savings offset the loan repayments, therefore new equipment should pay for itself and you should continue to make savings year on yearA straightforward and fast application process with no arrangement feesYou’ll receive a conditional offer within 24 hours of your application being processedLoans can be repaid over a period of up to 7 years, in some cases even longerYou can track the progress of your application online

Borrow £1, 000 upwards
Why a business loan makes business sense
Assuming a business is paying corporation tax at 28p:
100% taxable allowance in first year That’s 28p for every pound investedThis is an immediate cash-flow boost of 22.4p over the usual 5.6p first year capital allowance
Direct costs such as transport and installation can also be included in the scheme

Tax Benefits
TAX benefits explained
Profit £100,000
Corporation Tax at 28% = £28,000
Tax reduction for £50,000 investment
Enhanced capitalallowances 100%
Normal capitalallowances 20%
£50,000 x 28%= £14,000
£10,000 x 28%= £2,800
Net tax saving for £50,000 investment inECA qualifying equipment = £11,200
* Enhanced Capital Allowances are separate from any other capital allowances categories

Reducing a company’s energy bills also reduces the subsequent Climate Change Levy which gives significant long-term savings as a result of the initial investment
