VPhase trial confirms energy savings of 9 percent

(23/09/2010)

Following a three month social housing trial with Great Places Housing Group, VPhase has released independently analysed results showing energy savings of between 8.5% and 9.0% and estimated yearly CO2 savings of up to 180kg per property. This equates to an average 3.6% of a households’ annual CO2 emissions and importantly, a significant proportion of many housing association’s overall CO2 reduction targets. The trial, which took place earlier this year, saw the low-cost VPhase unit installed... [more]

VPhase voltage optimisation device enables households to cut energy costs immediately without changing electricity supplier or lifestyle

(05/08/2010)

Incoming voltage to properties in the UK varies and is normally higher than necessary – typically around 245V. Household appliances are designed to operate within the statutory range (207V to 253V) therefore many are more efficient and use less electricity at a much lower voltage. A VPhase unit will reduce and regulate the voltage to an operationally efficient level of 220V, eliminating over-voltage, which is a costly and an unnecessary waste of energy. The amount of energy saved is device sp... [more]
