Helping Gala Businesses Cut Utility Costs

Many local businesses have told us that rising utility costs are a major concern – so we listened and arranged some practical support. Through BID for Galashiels, we’ve partnered with Eyebright Utilities, a company with over 10 years of experience helping Business Improvement Districts across Scotland cut their energy costs.

Already, some of our members are saving thousands of pounds a year through this partnership – and you could be next.

Eyebright offers:

• Reviews of your current energy suppliers and ricing

• Identification of cost-saving opportunities

• Advice on available grant funding

• Feasibility studies for renewables like solar PV and voltage optimisation

• Efficiency monitoring tools to manage usage and reduce waste

Other BIDs working with Eyebright have seen real results, including:

• 53% energy cost reduction for a Falkirk business – saving £1,600 per year

• £893 annual saving on gas for a small business in Inverurie

• £14,000 yearly saving for a Kirkwall BID levy payer

To get started, contact Michael Dogan at Eyebright Utilities directly by emailing m.dogan@eyebrightutilities.co.uk – remember to state that you are a business member of BID for Galashiels in your email. Alternatively, you can get in touch with Mags, and she’ll be happy to guide you through the process.
