How does voltage optimisation work?
Voltage Optimisation is a transformer based technology that manages electricity consumption, by controlling the incoming voltage supplied to electrical equipment. Average UK voltage is 242v, around ten per cent higher than equipment requires. This higher voltage not only leads to increased energy consumption, but also results in higher electricity bills and unnecessary wear and tear on electrical appliances.
Voltage optimisation lowers the incoming voltage to a level that is more suitable for the electrical equipment’s efficient operation. By optimising their voltage, businesses can achieve significant energy savings and reduce their carbon emissions, making a positive impact on the environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does voltage optimisation work?
The basic principle behind voltage optimisation (VO) is to reduce the voltage level from that of the incoming grid supply to match the needs of your electrical equipment.VO is a transformer-based technology and acts as a buffer between your incoming electrical supply and your equipment. An optimiser can monitor the voltage levels and reduce them to the optimal level for your equipment. For more technical information, visit our voltage optimisation explainer page.
How much can I save on my energy bills with voltage optimisation?
The average customer can expect to save between eight and twelve per cent on their energy bills. However, some clients achieve far greater savings and you will also save on equipment and maintenance costs. How much you will save depends on several factors. Different types of electrical equipment react differently to the same level of voltage reduction. The actual energy saving achieved with voltage optimisation will be dictated by the level of voltage reduction, combined with the voltage dependency of all electrical equipment in use on site. For example, if the overall voltage dependency of your site is one hundred per cent, then for a ten per cent voltage reduction you would benefit from a 19 per cent energy saving.
How long does it take to see a return on investment?
Most customers will see a return on investment within two years.
Will voltage optimisation work with solar?
Yes, all our voltage optimisers are fully compatible and are a complimentary fit with all renewable technologies such as Solar PV, biomass, heat pumps, wind, and other forms of energy generation.
