WATTICS
VALUE PROPOSITION
Wattics developed, patented and commercializes a revolutionary noninvasive software solution to manage electricity gas and water in industrial
and commercial settings, which allows tracking each machines
consumption and identify saving opportunities with one meter clipped at the
mains.
Wattics provides unique insights for maintenance managers and financial
controllers to control their companys equipment cost and provide tangible
savings. The solution is versatile to monitor small to very large industrial
setting.
For example in Smurfit Kappa, Wattics monitors tracks consumption of
inner sections of a paper manufacturing process. A Wattics smart alarm
located onsite is used to promptly alert operator in case of an energysaving opportunity. The solution has reduced by 50% the consumption
during machine setup phase.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION:
Energy Management Software
The energy market is currently providing a great growth opportunity. It is
expected that within the next 2 to 3 years, companies with an excess of
5k monthly energy bill will be equipped with energy management solution.
Maintenance manager and financial controllers are actively seeking energy
management solutions that identify saving opportunities and provide fast
return on investment.
Breaking up the consumption to each appliance/machine is known to be
effective in identifying saving opportunities. The problem is that current
market solution requires installing a large amount of metering hardware to
monitor down to machine/appliance level. Only 5-10% of corporate clients
are currently prepared to invest 50-100k to retrofit the site with meters.
Software is cheaper than hardware: by using intelligent software
technologies, Wattics reduces the hardware capex needed to monitor
appliances to a fraction of current market solutions.

BIOMASS HEATING SOLUTIONS


VALUE PROPOSITION
bhsl design, manufacture, install, commission and operate innovative
heating equipment. Our offering is particularly advantageous to the poultry
industry but also has attraction for any business looking to install
renewable heat onsite.
For poultry farmers, this means that the poultry manure that might once
have carried a cost of disposal, can now be utilised to generate heat for the
growing of chickens, potentially eliminating entire heating bills all year
round. Poultry can thrive in the warm, dry, optimally ventilated, low
ammonia conditions of the poultry house, putting on more weight for each
kilogramme of grain fed to them.
Bhsl equipment is remotely managed by our engineers and monitoring 24/7
to deal with any issues.
Our technology is currently in use at Uphouse Farms Ltd, in Norfolk. Its
owner, Nigel Joice won Poultry Farmer of the Year in 2011.
Regulation relating to the disposal of poultry manure is a growing problem
for poultry farmers and our FBC unit provides a proven method of disposal
while also providing multiple other benefits such as improved Feed
Conversion Ratio, reduced or eliminated heating costs and improved bird
welfare.
Our bulk handling equipment, the bhsl Toploader, is an extremely reliable,
remotely operable piece of machinery. It is significantly cheaper than
moving floor technology and has the added benefit of having the moving
parts located overhead, rather than underneath the fuel. This makes
maintenance much easier. It has been designed so that tipper trucks can
reverse into the storage bay and unload directly underneath the toploader.
The Toploader is ideal for those moving to biomass heating such as
woodchip.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION:
Research, development & manufacture of renewable energy equipment.

PRODUCTS:
Supply and operate commercial Fluidised Bed Combustion heating
systems suitable for low-value biomass such as poultry litter, wet wood
chips and spent mushroom compost. Installations include an innovative
fuel handling system called a Toploader which can be purchased
separately to address a variety of bulk materials handling needs.

PROAIR Heat Recovery Ventilation Systems


VALUE PROPOSITION
In these days of increasing fossil fuel prices, the best value-for-money
energy is that which one never uses at all. Over a third of all energy used
can be
replaced by energy efficiency measures. This is mainly in buildings and has
been demonstrated many times by the passive house movement.
A crucial component in the mix, needed to provide this kind of saving is
Heat Recovery Ventilation. HRV is essential in the ultra-low-energy building
and it in itself has to be of the highest standard in order not to let down the
team.
At ProAir, we pride ourselves in providing this. It is not just about the HRV
unit, but also about the system design, installation commissioning and
aftersales service. An excellent unit connected to a badly designed and
installed ducting infrastructure will never perform to its rating. At ProAir we
use our knowledge and experience built up over the last few decades to
provide end-users with ducting systems which are of the lowest pressure
loss of any of the competitors, totally draft-free air distribution systems and
an overall system which is absolutely silent in operation. This ensures a
healthy, comfortable indoor environment to you the customer at ridiculously
low running costs.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION:
ProAir Heat Recovery Ventilation Systems Ltd. was incorporated in 2004 in
order to build on the experience of two decades of involvement in the
HVAC industry and develop its own version of a heat recovery ventilation
system.Coming from the service sector, it was keen not just to design the
best in class HRV unit, but also to be heavily involved in installation,
commissioning and after sales. It has installed in excess of 2000 mainly
residential units in Ireland since then and recently set up a subsidiary in the
UK called ProAir installations. As the company provides the full HRV
solution from the provision of all the necessary components to training,
design and installation, it now has detailed plans for taking the business
model to a full franchise offering.

ARUP CONSULTING ENGINEERS


VALUE PROPOSITION
To make buildings sustainable, we design for better performance from
every angle. At Arup, we consider how all elements of a buildings design
work together to meet the needs of its owners, occupants and the
environment.
We believe that total building design can create buildings that are efficient
with resources, affordable to build and operate, good to inhabit and
appropriate to their context. Our experience is that this holistic approach
delivers better buildings with discernable impacts on productivity.
Bringing our broad range of skills to bear allows for speedy evaluation of
alternative green building solutions early in the design process, so these
can be fully integrated from the first concept studies.
In addition to measuring the performance of green building designs against
established benchmarks like LEED or BREEAM we can also use an Arup
generated indicator called SPeAR, which the unique advantage that it can
be developed to reflect the specific issues affecting key stakeholders for a
project and address the real measures when can be adopted to impact on
those stakeholders. This approach creates a significantly greater level of
awareness of sustainability in the final building and is directly linked to the
delivery of better buildings.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION:
