About Practical Energy Solutions
energy consultancy
From design to installation to maintenance
We are an independent energy consultancy based in Peterborough, working with commercial businesses across England and Wales.
What makes us different is straightforward: we don't start with a technology. We start with your business – your premises, your energy use, your growth plans – and we design a strategy around that. No preferred suppliers. No off-the-shelf solutions. Just honest, expert advice.

Why independence matters
Most businesses dealing with energy challenges are approached by companies with a specific technology to sell. You'll hear a compelling case for solar, heat pumps, or battery storage – because that's what they install.
We work differently. Our consultants are qualified and experienced across the full range of commercial energy technologies, which means we can assess your situation objectively and recommend what will genuinely work for you. Sometimes that's a single technology. Often it's a combination. Occasionally, it's something you wouldn't have thought to ask about.
We also take the time to understand where your business is headed. An energy system that suits your business today shouldn't become a constraint on your growth tomorrow – so your plans are part of our thinking from the very first conversation.
