Energy Efficiency

Having successfully been awarded as a ‘Green Achiever’, supporting the Government with their aim to lower carbon emissions from businesses was a natural step to take.

Investing in energy efficient equipment makes sound business and environmental sense, especially when financed with an interest free business loan from the carbon trust, as no capital outlay is required.

As part of our ‘Green Promise’, Metric is committed to helping your Company reduce its carbon footprint, as well as its energy bills.

Your Company could obtain an interest free, government funded business loan from the Carbon Trust, subject to eligibility. Your loan payments will be calculated so the difference you save in energy will pay your loan providing you with the opportunity to upgrade your systems at no capital outlay.
