Cranleigh Consulting
Services

Seven service lines. One accountable team holding the energy function for you.

From procurement and audit through to generation strategy and compliance — the work that keeps an energy-intensive site competitive, in one place.

Service line

Energy procurement

Problem

Industrial buying is not consumer switching. Wholesale curves move daily, non-commodity charges shift annually, and contract structure can outweigh unit price.

What we do

Strategic buying of electricity, gas and water across single and multi-site portfolios. We model your load profile, time market entry, and structure contracts that match your operational risk — fixed, flexible, or a basket of both.

Outcome

A buying strategy that survives a volatile year — and a contract you actually understand.

Bill auditing & validation

Problem

Energy invoices are dense and almost never correct. Errors compound silently across multi-site portfolios and rarely flag themselves.

What we do

Every invoice checked against contract terms and metered consumption. Errors caught before they cost you — and credits recovered before they're out of time.

Outcome

Confidence that what you're paying matches what you've used and what you've signed.

Historic cost recovery

Problem

Billing errors and overcharges accumulate quietly. Six years of supplier mistakes can sit on your ledger as a hidden asset.

What we do

We reclaim billing errors, mis-applied charges and overcharges going back up to six years across all your meters and sites.

Outcome

Cash back on the balance sheet — typically before you're invoiced for the next month.

Scheme & non-commodity recovery

Problem

Energy-intensive sites are entitled to substantial reliefs — but the schemes are technical, time-bound and unforgiving of paperwork errors.

What we do

EII certification, the British Industry Supercharger, CCA, EBRS and network-charge optimisation — secured, maintained and renewed on your behalf.

Outcome

Every relief the law allows, every year — without the certification headache.

Flexible procurement & risk management

Problem

Locking a single fixed price in a volatile market is a bet, not a strategy. Flexible procurement is how serious industrial buyers actually buy.

What we do

We manage how and when you buy across the wholesale curve — tranching purchases, hedging exposure, and acting on market triggers we monitor for you continuously.

Outcome

An average price you can stand behind to your board — not a single, lucky moment in time.

On-site generation & PPA advisory

Problem

Solar, battery, CHP and corporate PPAs change your cost stack permanently. Done badly, they lock in worse economics than the grid.

What we do

Independent guidance on technology, sizing, structuring and financing — delivered through trusted partners we don't take commissions from.

Outcome

A generation strategy structured around your load profile, not a vendor's catalogue.

Carbon & compliance

Problem

ESOS, SECR, UK ETS and carbon reporting all need doing — but bolting them onto an unrelated team produces audit risk and missed savings.

What we do

We hold carbon and compliance alongside the cost work, so reduction opportunities surface in procurement decisions and not just in the annual report.

Outcome

Compliance handled, and a carbon position that's actually moving — measured the same way every year.
