Voltage optimisation can cut your
electricity by 10%

If you are interested in cutting down on your electricity bills, improving the efficiency of your appliances and helping to cut UK carbon emissions, perhaps you might like to consider installing a voltage optimisation device. If so Anolis can help.

What is voltage optimisation? Well, some people believe that the UK national grid has a problem with overvoltage. Essentially this means that the voltage of power supplied to the domestic home is higher than the voltage at which most equipment is designed to operate efficiently. This in turn can cause a reduction in equipment lifetime and also increases energy consumption with no accompanying improvements in performance.

A voltage optimiser works by reducing the amount of voltage entering the home. Some devices merely consist of a transformer, but many others use a special transformer-based electric circuit which gives the user the ability to automatically control and optimise their electricity supply. These devices are very efficient and are therefore an excellent way in which to save energy, as a result they are becoming very popular around the world and are used extensively in Japan. Typically a voltage optimiser will reduce the voltage entering the home from 245 volts, which is the typical voltage level supplied by the UK national grid, down to 220 volts. This in turn helps to save energy, reducing electricity bills and cutting down on UK carbon emissions. It will also help to run appliances more efficiently and possibly extend their life.
