Help your school save energy, money and cut emissions

We know that school budgets are tighter than ever right now which doesn’t help when energy prices are at an all-time high.

At LASER, we’ve been securing energy contracts for over 30 years. We’ve helped over 7,000 schools and academies across the UK save money and become more energy efficient through our compliant procurement frameworks and LED lighting projects. And with our energy management services, we help schools stick to their energy budgets and avoid overpayment on utility bills.

Achieve a remarkable 70% reduction on your lighting usage by switching to energy efficient LED’s

LED lighting for your school

Through LASER’s DfE approved LED lighting framework and project management services, Academies Enterprise Trust (AET) upgraded the lighting across 15 schools.

The results:

  • over 1,000 tonnes of CO2 savings each year
  • £430k of energy bill savings each year

LED lighting not only reduces your carbon footprint and bills, it also helps transform the classroom into a brighter more engaging learning environment for children.

Let us manage your energy whilst you focus on what matters

We’ll help you ride energy market volatility, save energy and reduce your carbon footprint with our tailored end-to-end solutions.

Compliant energy frameworks

Our energy frameworks provide Schools with a compliant route to secure the best value contracts for the supply of electricity, gas and water. You have the option to choose either a fixed term contract that provides budget certainty or a more flexible contract that tracks market movements to mitigate price increases.

Energy procurement

Fully understand your energy spend, usage and more...

We’ll help you pay less to power your school buildings. We do this by examining your energy bills and resolving inaccuracies, generating budget and forecast reports and analysing your energy consumption. You also have online access to your bills and energy data, allowing you to view your invoices, supplier query updates and track your consumption trends.

Energy management services

Whether it’s upgrading to LED lighting, installing rooftop solar panels or swapping gas boilers for heat pumps, we’ll help you find the right suppliers – all with the reassurance that they have been vetted, are compliant and can meet your funding criteria and deadlines.
