Utility bill audit. Revenue recovered.
If you manage utility costs for a business, there is a reasonable chance you have been overcharged. We find out - and we recover what is yours.
Energy bills are some of the most complex invoices in business.
Non-commodity charges - network fees, levies, third-party costs, settlement charges - can make up the majority of what you pay. They are layered, technical, and difficult to verify without the right tools.
Most finance teams simply do not have the time or specialist knowledge to check whether every charge is correct. That is entirely understandable.
It is also why billing errors often go undetected for years.
We leave no line item unchecked.
Our forensic audit covers every element of your utility spend - not just the headline supply charges. The errors hide in the detail.
Electricity & gas supply
Unit rates, standing charges, capacity charges. The headline bill checked line by line.
Network & DUoS charges
Distribution and transmission use of system charges - a common area for hidden errors.
Third-party charges
MOP, DC, DA fees. Often opaque, often miscalculated. We know exactly what to look for.
Levies & obligations
Climate Change Levy. Renewables Obligation. Feed-in Tariff. Verified against your eligibility.
Half-hourly settlement
HH metered supplies have the most complex settlement charges - and the most opportunity for error.
Water & wastewater
Often overlooked. Water bills carry the same potential for billing errors as energy.
If we don't find anything, you don't pay.
Our Revenue Recovery service works on a share-of-savings basis. We only earn a fee when we successfully recover money for you.
If our audit finds nothing recoverable, there is no charge. And you will at least have the peace of mind that your bills are correct.
What you risk
Nothing. No upfront cost. No disruption to operations. No need to switch supplier.
The only thing you risk is finding out how much you have already overpaid.

Where revenue recovery finds the most value.
Most organisations we audit have never had their utility bills independently reviewed. Recovery tends to deliver the strongest results in four scenarios.
Multiple sites, separate accounts
The complexity multiplies with each site. So does the opportunity for billing errors going unnoticed.
High energy consumption
Manufacturing, hospitality, retail, healthcare. Where energy is a major cost, percentage errors translate to large cash recoveries.
Long supplier relationships
If your bills have not been independently reviewed in years, errors have had years to compound. Up to six years recoverable.
HH metered & post-acquisition
Half-hourly metered supplies have the most complex settlement. Recent M&A rarely has historic billing reviewed.
Real audits. Real refunds.
This is what a recovery audit looks like in practice. Five errors. Five refunds. £94,818 returned to a single client across 24 months of historic billing.
Some clients recover hundreds. Some recover hundreds of thousands. The only way to know is to look.
