Ireland's largest independent energy supplier has teamed up ResourceKraft, a Cork based supplier of energy management systems, to launch a new initiative for Musgrave's SuperValu stores in an effort to reduce energy costs.

The new partnership will result in the businesses significantly reducing their energy costs and use by up to 2,100 tonnes of CO2, saving the use of approximately 44 megawatts of electricity to the national grid each year. Musgrave's Supervalu are the first major chain to avail of this new initiative.

Designed to be easily understood, guide behaviour change and save significantly on energy bills, ResourceKraft Advisor has become an essential tool for the energy conscious business along with measuring and recording results of energy efficient actions/investments. ResourceKraft Advisor customers average over 10% reduction in electricity consumption within their first year with returns-on-investment of less than 12 months.

Speaking at the announcement of ResourceKraft's partnership with Energia, ResourceKraft Commercial Director Frank Casey said, "Energy has grown to become the second largest cost after labour for most businesses. Utilising the latest technologies in measurement and management, businesses can now take control of energy as a cost, increasing Net margins while correspondingly reducing carbon emissions and meeting their Corporate Social Responsibility objectives.

"We are working closely with Energia on this important agenda. The essential task is guiding energy users on how their direct actions can reduce energy consumption and business costs. In doing so, their company becomes more competitive while contributing to a reduction in Ireland's greenhouse gas emissions."
