Frequently asked questions about energy advice

Energy Advice provides tips and advice on monitoring, analyzing and optimizing your company's energy consumption, so you can improve your company's energy efficiency and achieve significant cost savings. You can connect with an energy advisor through the Yritys Online service. The Yritys Alkuperä service includes two hours of energy advice per year. Energy advice is provided by the consulting company Granlund Oy.

Energy advice is included in the Yritys Alkuperä and Yritys Online Plus services. You can contact an energy advisor by sending an inquiry via the Yritys Online service using the contact form. The energy advisor will contact you by email or phone based on the information provided in the form and will help you with your request related to your company's energy issues.

An energy expert from Granlund Oy will contact you shortly after submitting the form. Depending on demand, you can expect to be contacted within a few business days of submitting the form. You can arrange a meeting time and your preferred method of contact (phone, email or online meeting) directly with the energy advisor.

Typically, energy advice begins with a survey of the current situation. This is important so that the energy advisor can find the right measures for your situation. In the questionnaire, you can provide, among other things, the following information to support the survey of the current situation:

  • Type of company and size of premises

  • Estimated electricity consumption of the company

  • Date of construction of the property, any repairs, general condition and age of windows, floors, ventilation, etc.

  • When was the building insulated or re-insulated

  • Indoor air temperature

  • Number of employees

  • Does the building have solar panels or electric car charging points

The importance of energy in society is constantly growing and growth is not slowing down in the coming years. No company or service can function without energy. And as society becomes more electrified, energy consumption will only continue to rise.

In addition, it is very likely that energy costs will continue to rise for a long time to come. In this case, it will also eat up an even larger share of the funds available to companies. If the price rises slowly, companies will easily just budget more for its costs, even though energy use and thus also costs could be optimized with even small things.
So it is worth starting to pay attention to energy use and costs now at the latest. Unfortunately, costs will not decrease by themselves.

The good news is, however, that the measures do not have to be difficult. The most important thing is to find out what can be done and even small measures can have a greater impact. Take, for example, adjusting indoor temperatures as needed or adjusting an air-source heat pump so that it does not cool the room unnecessarily while the heating radiators are heating it at the same time. Making these adjustments is not difficult, you just need to know how to do it.

In addition, with energy saving measures you kill two birds with one stone: you save costs and reduce your company's emissions!

Many different topics! Here are some examples of topics where energy consulting can help:

  • Interpretation and analysis of a company's energy consumption and consumption profile

  • Company-specific advice on saving energy and costs

  • What investments can a company make to influence its energy consumption?

  • Analysis of the increase in the company's electricity costs

  • Managing the company's indoor air conditions and controlling the heating and cooling systems of buildings

  • Upgrading lighting to a more energy-efficient solution

  • Making an energy efficiency plan in connection with a ventilation renovation

  • Savings brought about by a possible energy renovation

  • Carbon footprint calculations

  • Emissions pathway maps

  • Energy certificates for housing companies

  • Profitability calculations of air source heat pumps

  • Needs determinations of solar panels and cost savings calculations

  • An independent expert's perspective, for example, for comparing offers or analyzing energy solutions

  • Cooling of company premises

  • Sustainable energy solutions

  • Issues related to the responsibility of energy use, for example

  • Carbon dioxide emissions of purchased energy

  • Share and sources of emissions in the company's operations

  • Emission compensations

  • Responsibility of energy solution service providers

  • Power for company cars

The list above is by no means comprehensive. If the topic you are interested in is not on the list, please contact Granlund's energy advisors. They have extensive expertise in energy-related matters. Not all issues can be resolved in a couple of hours through energy advice, but experts are there for you and your company to give advice on how to get started with larger projects and what steps your company should take in the future. The implementation of larger projects can also be agreed separately with Granlund's experts.
