Energy efficiency and carbon savings of 13.67 tonnes

Outcome

MARCH helped a leading London science museum improve the efficiency of its compressed air system following the failure of an ageing compressor. Following an energy audit, MARCH recommended and installed a lower-capacity, energy-efficient alternative that met the site’s requirements while reducing energy waste, lowering carbon emissions and delivering a strong return on investment.
