EDF Small Business and Heliotec have announced a partnership that begins with a four-month trial involving over 1,000 eligible EDF Small Business customers. The partnership combines EDF’s expertise and customer relationships with Heliotec’s AI-powered energy intelligence platform to make energy management more practical and accessible.
Small businesses are under growing pressure from rising energy costs1
and a more complex energy landscape, increasing the
need for simple, practical ways to improve efficiency and reduce unnecessary costs.
Heliotec’s AI-powered platform analyses to
identify inefficiencies and deliver
site-level energy data real-time,
site-specific
recommendations in clear, practical language. The platform translates complex energy data into straightforward actions, providing clear guidance that businesses can act on immediately.
This approach reduces the time and effort required to improve energy performance, without the need for additional hardware installation or complex implementation, allowing businesses to focus on running and growing their operations.
The four-month trial will provide over 1,000 eligible EDF Small Business customers across hospitality, retail and light industry with free access to the platform. Customers who choose to participate will securely share existing energy data with Heliotec, enabling the platform to begin analysing energy consumption and delivering tailored recommendations within days.
As part of the trial, a select group of early adopter businesses will also receive free hardware sensors, giving them equipment- level disaggregated data for even more granular insight into where energy is being used across their sites.
Claire Nutt, Director of Small Business at EDF said: “Small businesses are looking for practical ways to manage rising energy costs without adding complexity to their day-to-day operations. This partnership with Heliotec gives eligible customers access to clear, actionable guidance that can help them improve energy performance while keeping implementation simple.”
Thomas Eskebæk, CEO and founder of Heliotec added: “Small businesses don’t need more data. They need to know what action to take. That’s the problem Heliotec was created to solve. By partnering with EDF, we can make that support available to many more small businesses, helping them take greater control of their energy use.”
Insights from the trial will help inform future collaboration between EDF and Heliotec, supporting efforts to make practical energy management more accessible for small businesses across the UK.
