Case Study: Grant Engineering achieves 65% reduction in laser cutting standby energy with EnergyCAP

Grant Engineering - Customer Case Study

Grant Engineering, a leading UK and Ireland boiler manufacturer, faced high and poorly understood energy use across its Birr, Co. Offaly manufacturing site where laser cutting machines, robotic arms, compressed air and painting plant are major consumers. To gain equipment-level visibility and find savings opportunities, Grant Engineering engaged EnergyCAP to deploy an energy management solution and dashboard to monitor electricity consumption across key areas of the facility.

EnergyCAP’s monitoring and dashboard solution delivered clear before-and-after views that let Grant Engineering target the biggest users—notably the laser cutting machines—and standardise shutdown procedures. The changes verified through EnergyCAP resulted in a 65% drop in standby energy use for the lasers and savings of about €100 per machine each weekend, while enabling ongoing measurement, verification and performance tracking across the plant.
