To mark World Environment Day 2026, Air Energy is highlighting practical action on energy efficiency both within our own operations and through the work we do with customers.
While this is an important step for Air Energy, our wider environmental contribution is also connected to the work we do every day.
Compressed air is essential across many industrial environments, but it can also be one of the most energy-intensive utilities on site. Leaks, pressure losses, inefficient control, unnecessary pressure and equipment that no longer matches demand can all create avoidable energy waste.
That waste is not always easy to see. A system may continue to run and support production while using more electricity than necessary.
At our Hertford site, Air Energy has invested in a 39.13 kWp solar installation, which has generated almost 39,000 kWh of electricity since becoming operational in July 2025. The system helps reduce the electricity we draw from the grid and supports a more efficient approach to our own day-to-day operations.
To help businesses take a first step towards understanding this issue, Air Energy has launched the Wasted Air Energy Calculator – a simple online tool designed to estimate the potential cost of inefficient compressed air use.
The calculator uses site electricity consumption, tariff information and typical system-efficiency assumptions to provide an initial view of possible energy-saving opportunities. It is not a replacement for a full technical assessment, but it can help businesses understand whether a closer review of their compressed air system could identify practical improvements.
For UK sites, Air Energy’s engineers can support compressed air system reviews and leak detection surveys. For product, technical and international enquiries, the team can also advise on compressed air, vacuum, nitrogen and air treatment solutions designed around specific operational requirements.
Lower energy waste. Lower operating costs. Better system performance.
