EDF and Heliotec launch partnership to help small businesses reduce energy costs
The four-month trial will provide over 1,000 eligible EDF Small Business customers with free access to Heliotec’s AI-powered energy intelligence platform.
Customers receive real-time, site-specific recommendations in clear, practical language, to help them take immediate action to reduce unnecessary energy costs and waste.
No hardware installation required, allowing businesses to take control of their energy use
Small businesses are under growing pressure from rising energy costs and a more complex energy landscape, increasing the need for simple, practical ways to improve efficiency and reduce unnecessary costs.
Heliotec’s AI-powered platform analyses site-level energy data to identify inefficiencies and deliver real-time, site-specific recommendations in clear, practical language. The platform translates complex energy data into straightforward actions, providing clear guidance that businesses can act on immediately.
This approach reduces the time and effort required to improve energy performance, without the need for additional hardware installation or complex implementation, allowing businesses to focus on running and growing their operations.
The four-month trial will provide over 1,000 eligible EDF Small Business customers across hospitality, retail and light industry with free access to the platform. Customers who choose to participate will securely share existing energy data with Heliotec, enabling the platform to begin analysing energy consumption and delivering tailored recommendations within days.
As part of the trial, a select group of early adopter businesses will also receive free hardware sensors, giving them equipment-level disaggregated data for even more granular insight into where energy is being used across their sites.
Claire Nutt, Director of Small Business at EDF said: “Small businesses are looking for practical ways to manage rising energy costs without adding complexity to their day-to-day operations. This partnership with Heliotec gives eligible customers access to clear, actionable guidance that can help them improve energy performance while keeping implementation simple.”
