Challenges
Some of the issues facing the commercial/ manufacturing sector in relation to energy supply include:

• rising prices of retail gas and electricity
• consumer and regulatory pressures towards “greener” buildings
• need to minimise the environmental impact on urban areas – noise, emissions etc
• space constraints
• need for high quality power e.g. stability of voltage particularly important in the manufacturing sector
