Educating the next generation
Our expertise and experience has helped hundreds of schools to reduce their costs and carbon emissions through use of energy efficient technology, and use of renewable energy systems.
We recognise that schools and academies are under relentless budgetary pressure. While financial savings are often the driver for change, the environmental benefits that come with becoming more sustainable and making the switch to solar energy, or school LED lighting can be significant.
One school we work with is saving over 900 tonnes of carbon, equivalent to the emissions that are produced from driving 3.2 million miles!
Ineco Energy believe we all have a collective responsibility to educate future generations on environmental responsibility and maintaining a healthy planet. Providing schools physical access to greener energy and energy efficiency technology, we can visually demonstrate and engage pupils in how we can all play our part in helping to save the planet.

Talk to usOutdated fluorescent classroom lighting attracts high maintenance costs and safety issues with bulb changes, often at height.
Ineco Energy can replace old school lighting systems with low-energy school LED lighting, offering a more consistent, brighter and more natural light, proven to improve learning outcomes.
Replacing inefficient and old school lighting systems can save up to 80% on your electricity bill, while bringing brighter classrooms and workspaces.

Talk to usFor schools, battery storage such as the Tesla Powerwall, can minimise energy wastage by storing unused energy until hours of darkness or excess demand.
Talk to usIneco Energy can provide electric vehicle (EV) charging facilities for your school. You could charge your school’s electric minibus via EV charging or offer staff the facility to charge their personal cars.
Talk to usThe ability to store energy on site and use that power when required is an increasingly important capability for large manufacturing and industrial sites.
For those industrial sites that operate long production or working hours, battery storage such as the Tesla Powerwall provides the ideal solution to the issue of wasted energy, storing energy for hours of darkness or excess demand.
Talk to usIneco Energy specialise in helping primary and secondary schools of all types, including Academies and Multi Academy Trusts (MATs) to reduce their operating costs by adopting renewable energy and energy-efficient technologies.

All maintained schools, academies and Multi-Academy Trusts (MATs) can access government-backed funding to implement renewable energy and energy-efficient technologies.
At no upfront or ongoing cost to your school, you can make financial and environmental savings from day one.
Government-backed Salix Finance provides interest-free loans to help create greener schools. Your school remains cash flow positive throughout as the loans are repayable using the predicted energy savings.
We can use our expertise to help you access this funding, or the other schemes below, by completing an application on your behalf, eliminating the administration for you.
