Captain Q's Energy Saving Blog | Quantum Controls

Our climate is beginning to display the adverse symptoms of excessive energy use, as the storage of finite natural resources continually depletes; the news of any energy conservation strategy comes as a welcome progression towards the wider adoption of gentler, more sustainable solutions.

At Quantum Controls we believe that every energy efficient centred project deserves praise and recognition, not only because they have actively opted for an ethical alternative but also because they have set foot along a new greener path that will hopefully encourage many more to follow suit.

Quantum Controls are particularly receptive to the news of energy efficient projects, products and inventions because we specialise in supplying energy efficient variable speed motors and drives. We are therefore perfectly positioned to take a proactive approach when it comes to energy conservation. Motors and drives absorb 75% of all energy in UK industries. Our motors and drives work to reduce waste energy without compromising on the all-important end results, so customers benefit from reduced costs, while the environment is saved from the needless drain on its resources.

The recent news that the electrical giant, Samsung is to pioneer a European offshore wind farm in the Methil energy park site, on the Fife coastline, to test and build a 7 Megawatt turbine, comes as a major merit making move. Samsung Heavy Industries have demonstrated a real commitment to low-carbon energy, as they diversify, investing a huge £100 million into the project and creating 500 extra jobs in renewable energy. It shows how serious they are when it comes to making their mark in sustainable power. As an added bonus Scotland’s profile will be elevated as they accommodate Samsung’s new surge in sustainable power.
A Korean based firm selecting Fife as their first base in Europe for renewable technology development reveals Scotland and the UK’s miles of coastline as one of the guiding lights in new offshore wind technologies. Huge companies such as Samsung are perfect candidates to pioneer worthy projects like these, as their existing kudos commands global attention.
Samsung’s decision to acknowledge the benefits of sustainable power immediately boosts their reputation as a considerate, forward thinking corporation. This is proven by positive reactions such as, “This investment will create jobs and help reduce carbon emissions, making it excellent news for Fife, for Scotland and for the environment.” This comment by Dr Richard Dixon, director of the Charity WWF Scotland, reveals the wide reaching benefits that the scheme will bring.

Operating in an industry that revolves around the output of energy, Quantum Controls Ltd. feel perfectly positioned to make a difference when it comes to tackling the serious issue of energy conservation. Just as all energy projects work in the interests of an individual company as well as a wider environmental context.
To make life easier and avoid an upfront purchase of equipment, we have launched a Lease and Save Scheme, which allows you to install energy saving systems by structuring your payments so that the lease cost is always significantly less than the energy savings. The energy efficient motors offer an immediate CO2 reduction that sees an industry’s carbon footprint shrink, together with energy costs, which are subject to constant increase. We pride ourselves on providing energy efficient products that cleverly minimise waste without compromising on results.

You can also apply for Energy Efficiency loans from the Carbon Trust, which is a cost effective way to replace or upgrade existing equipment with a more energy efficient version. We’re more than happy provide further details about the interest-free loans offered by The Carbon Trust and assist you with the completion of your application, so you can steer yourself onwards to a greener road.
The emergence of a new energy saving development is a step nearer to a complete shift in attitude. It should be recognised and praised, so we can begin to look forward to a sustainable future.

Join the revolution and minimise the environmental impact where you can. If you operate in an industry that relies upon the power of variable speed drives and motors, call us today on 0330 9000 247 and reconsider your options to see how you can reduce your costs and gain respect.
