Free Energy Saving Survey for Businesses in Leeds and across Yorkshire
CTE Contractors Ltd help businesses in Leeds reduce electricity bills with a free commercial energy saving survey. We also support businesses across Yorkshire.
Our qualified electricians visit your site to assess how and where your business uses electricity, and produce a clear, honest report identifying the measures that will have the greatest impact on your energy bills. From LED lighting and smart controls to heating systems, solar panels, and EV charging infrastructure, we cover the full range of electrical energy-saving solutions, and we only recommend what genuinely stacks up for your site.
Energy costs have become one of the most significant pressures facing commercial businesses. Many premises are still running outdated lighting, inefficient heating controls, and electrical systems that were designed for a different era, quietly burning money every hour they operate. The good news is that the solutions are well-established, the payback periods are shorter than most people expect, and a structured approach to energy reduction can deliver savings that are felt immediately on the bottom line.
As experienced commercial electricians rather than energy brokers or sales consultants, we give you a genuinely independent assessment of your premises. We have no vested interest in recommending one solution over another; our job is to identify the measures that will deliver the best return for your business and carry out the work to a high standard. Clients across South Yorkshire have used our energy surveys as the starting point for significant, lasting reductions in their electricity spend.

With a passionate team driven by innovation and integrity, we’re not just powering buildings, we’re building lasting relationships and a more sustainable future for everyone we serve.
Our commercial energy saving survey in Leeds examines how your business uses electricity, with no obligation to proceed. We identify the areas with the strongest potential for savings.
We review all relevant parts of your premises and electrical systems to build a complete picture of energy use, including areas that are easy to overlook.
Areas we assess include your existing lighting installation (type, age, usage hours, and controls), heating and hot water systems, building management and time controls, occupancy patterns in relation to how spaces are currently managed, and your potential for renewable generation through solar PV. We also consider areas that are often overlooked, such as corridors, stairwells, car parks, and WCs, where uncontrolled lighting can account for a surprising proportion of your total energy spend.
Following the survey, we provide a clear written report of the recommended measures, with costs and priorities set out so you can decide where to begin. There is no pressure or obligation to proceed.
After the survey, CTE Contractors can carry out any or all of the recommended works, giving you a single, trusted contractor from assessment through to installation.
Our energy saving solutions for businesses in Leeds and across Yorkshire span several areas, all delivered by our in-house team of qualified electricians.
LED Lighting Upgrades remain the most impactful starting point for most commercial premises, cutting lighting energy consumption by up to 60% and dramatically reducing maintenance costs.
PIR Occupancy Sensors and Daylight Controls ensure lighting is only active where and when it's needed, extending those savings further in corridors, WCs, storerooms, and external areas.
Heating Controls and Time Switching tackle one of the most overlooked sources of energy waste: heating systems running outside occupied hours or in areas that don't need it.
Solar PV Installation allows businesses to generate their own electricity and reduce dependence on grid supply, with excess generation exported back for additional income.
EV charging infrastructure can be integrated into a wider energy strategy, particularly where solar generation is part of the mix, enabling businesses to charge vehicles using their own generated power.
Businesses often postpone energy efficiency work because they are unsure about costs, disruption and whether savings will materialise.
Our energy survey is designed to address these questions before you spend a penny.
For most commercial premises, LED lighting upgrades alone deliver payback within 12 to 24 months, after which the savings go straight to the bottom line year after year. Add smart controls, heating management, and solar generation, and the combined impact on your annual energy spend can be transformational. We've worked with businesses across South Yorkshire including car dealerships, schools, and large commercial premises where a phased programme of energy saving measures has cut electricity bills by 40% or more.
Beyond the financial return, energy efficiency improvements support your business's sustainability credentials, help meet increasingly common supply chain requirements around environmental performance, and future-proof your premises against further energy price rises. It's one of the few investments that pays you back while making your operation more resilient.

Yes, completely. There's no charge for the survey and no obligation to proceed with any works. We believe that giving you an honest, independent assessment is the best way to start a relationship, and the results speak for themselves.
It depends on the size of your premises. A survey for a small to medium commercial site typically takes one to two hours. Larger or multi-site premises may require longer. We'll agree the scope with you beforehand.
You'll receive a written report identifying each recommended measure, the estimated cost of implementation, the projected annual energy savings, and the expected payback period. Everything is clearly laid out so you can prioritise what makes the most sense for your business.
Absolutely not. The report gives you a menu of options, and you decide what to act on and when. Many clients start with one or two high-impact measures and phase further work over time as savings accumulate.
We work with businesses in Leeds and across Yorkshire in a wide range of commercial sectors, including car dealerships, logistics and warehousing, manufacturing, education, healthcare, hospitality, and retail. If your business has an electricity bill, we can almost certainly help reduce it.
Yes. Solar PV is one of the solutions we assess and install as part of a wider energy strategy. We'll advise on whether your roof and usage profile make solar a worthwhile investment and provide a fully costed proposal.
It varies by measure, but LED lighting upgrades typically pay back within 12 to 24 months. Solar PV payback is typically four to seven years depending on usage and generation. We'll give you specific projections for your site as part of the survey report.
We plan all installations to minimise disruption and are experienced at working on live commercial premises. Where your operation can't accommodate downtime, we can schedule works outside your operating hours.
We're based in Barnsley and provide commercial energy saving surveys and installations for businesses in Leeds. We also cover South Yorkshire, including Rotherham, Sheffield and Doncaster, as well as Leeds, Huddersfield, Wakefield, Bradford and surrounding areas.

Chris and his guys are really professional, and just very nice people to do business with.
I have used them many times now in my home for various projects and also my friends and family's homes.
Full house rewire in our house, along with spotlights and outside sockets and lights. Really pleased and I won’t be going anywhere else in future.
Chris and particularly Alex have been involved in a full refurb of our new property. We had a full rewire, plus many extras. They have all been absolutely fantastic. Very professional, helpful and great at their work. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who requires electrical work. Thank you guys.
Had Chris and the team in for a Consumer Unit change and some downlights. 1st class from start to finish. Turned up on time and job completed within timescale. Would recommend.
