Investigate the Metering It is very important to ensure that the power you pay for is actually the power you are using. ESP will complete a full review of switchboards and sub-boards verifying that the metering is accurate and correctly set up for your application.

	Investigate Billing and Network Connection A close examination of electricity accounts and network connection will identify any errors and potential areas for electricity savings. ESP will provide a detailed profile of power consumption for future tariff negotiation.

	Establish a Power Usage Footprint This step provides a benchmark to measure energy efficiency incentives. These profiles indicate where and how your power is consumed, providing strategies for reducing your overall energy costs.

	Power Factor Analysis Many companies are not aware that poor power factor can result in thousands of dollars per year in additional network charges and/or penalty charges. Our report will indicate what equipment is required to correct your power factor to .95 or better and also the cost and savings to be expected.

	Tariff Negotiation If you are currently in the process of negotiating rates, you will probably have found accurately comparing prices and contracts can be extremely difficult. ESP simplifies this process by using our expertise to cut through the confusion. We compare the rates and contracts of each retailer and present our recommendations in an easy-to-understand graph.

	Recommendations While assessing your electricity usage, we may recommend a further energy management investigation be completed by one of our auditors in accordance with the standards promoted by the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority (EECA) and the Energy Management Association (EMA). If any electrical safety concerns are identified we will also recommend that an electrical safety inspection is completed by one of our electrical inspectors.
