Pubs

How a Yorkshire Pub Saved £4,200 Per Year on Energy

Leeds, West Yorkshire

££450

per month

££4,800

per year

37%

saving

A family-run pub in Leeds was paying £1,200/month for electricity and gas combined. Their fixed-rate contract had expired 8 months earlier without renewal, and they'd been on out-of-contract rates without realising. The landlord was unaware of the renewal process and had never compared brokers.

"I had no idea we were paying so much over the odds. Monopolising sorted everything in a couple of weeks — all I did was send a photo of my bill. The savings are incredible."

— Pub Owner, Leeds

Restaurants

Italian Restaurant Cuts Energy Bills by 32% in Birmingham

Birmingham, West Midlands

££576

per month

££6,912

per year

32%

saving

A busy 80-cover Italian restaurant in Birmingham city centre was spending £1,800/month on energy. They'd been with the same broker for 4 years and had never compared rates. The owner assumed 'all brokers are the same' and didn't realise their contract had rolled onto expensive renewal rates.

"The smart meter alone was eye-opening. We discovered we were spending £200/month on energy during hours we were closed. Fixing that was free — we just needed to know about it."

— Restaurant Owner, Birmingham

Hotels

Boutique Hotel Saves £14,000 Across 3-Meter Portfolio

Lake District, Cumbria

££1,167

per month

££14,000

per year

29%

saving

A 24-bedroom boutique hotel in the Lake District had 3 separate electricity meters and 2 gas meters across the main building, leisure suite, and staff accommodation. Each had different contract end dates, different brokers, and the owner was struggling to manage them all. Two meters had rolled onto out-of-contract rates.

"Managing 5 different energy contracts was a nightmare. Monopolising consolidated everything under one broker, saved us £14,000 a year, and now I only have one renewal date to remember. Brilliant service."

— Hotel Owner, Lake District

Retail

Retail Chain Saves £22,000 Across 8 Store Portfolio

North West England

££1,833

per month

££22,000

per year

28%

saving

A convenience store chain with 8 locations across the North West was managing energy contracts individually per store. Some stores were on good rates; others were on expensive out-of-contract rates. The owner had no centralised tracking of renewal dates and was missing renewal windows regularly.

"We were losing thousands because individual store managers weren't tracking renewal dates. Now everything's centralised, we have group rates, and Monopolising handles all the renewals. I wish we'd done this years ago."

— Retail Chain Director, Manchester

Warehouses

Distribution Warehouse Halves Lighting Costs with LED Upgrade

Doncaster, South Yorkshire

££683

per month

££8,200

per year

31%

saving

A 50,000 sq ft distribution warehouse in Doncaster was spending £2,200/month on electricity, with lighting accounting for 45% of usage. The warehouse had outdated metal halide high-bay lighting that was expensive to run and slow to start. The facility was also on a 3-year contract that had expired 6 months earlier.

"The LED upgrade was a no-brainer — it paid for itself in a year and the warehouse is brighter than ever. Monopolising found savings we didn't even know existed."

— Warehouse Operations Manager, Doncaster

Care Homes

Care Home Group Saves £18,000 Across 3 Homes

South Yorkshire

££1,500

per month

££18,000

per year

25%

saving

A group of 3 care homes in South Yorkshire was spending a combined £6,000/month on energy. The homes had different brokers, inconsistent contract terms, and no centralised energy management. Two homes were approaching their renewal dates with no plan, risking a roll onto expensive out-of-contract rates.

"As care home operators, we can't compromise on resident comfort. Monopolising understood our regulatory requirements and found savings without affecting care standards. The group contract also means one renewal date instead of three — much simpler."

— Care Home Group Director, Sheffield
