Helping Emerge Care take control of energy contracts

Staffordshire Chamber Energy Services, powered by Troo, works in partnership with Staffordshire Chamber of Commerce to provide energy advice and support to businesses in rural areas.

Whether it’s managing energy contracts, addressing supply challenges, or supporting sustainability goals, we’re here to help businesses of all types take control of their energy.

Client overview

Emerge Care and Therapeutic Solutions run residential children’s homes across Staffordshire and Cheshire, as well as a SEN school. Their work supports children to thrive in a safe and nurturing environment.

Before working with Staffordshire Chamber Energy Services, their energy setup was difficult to manage. They were on several tariffs with different suppliers, all ending at different times. The contracts weren’t right for their needs, they were paying more than they should have and managing it all was taking up too much time.

The situation

With no single view of their contracts, the team was spending too long on admin. There was no consistency in contract terms or end dates, and switching between providers added to the confusion. The tariffs in place didn’t suit the organisation’s needs and made financial planning harder than it needed to be.

What they wanted

Emerge Care had a few key goals in mind. Reducing costs was one part of it, but they also wanted to simplify how their energy was managed, choose better suppliers, improve efficiency, and bring long-term stability to their setup.

How we helped

Staffordshire Chamber Energy Services reviewed their current arrangements and offered advice on how to bring things under control. Tariffs were reviewed and aligned. The team now had a clear understanding of their energy contracts - when they started, when they ended, who the providers were, and how much was being spent.

Support didn’t stop after the switch. Named contacts were put in place to continue supporting them as their needs change.

The outcome

Emerge Care saw a reduction in energy costs, but that wasn’t the main win. The real difference came from having a setup that was easier to manage. With fewer suppliers and clearer terms, the team saved time and could focus on other areas of the business.

They now have more predictable costs and better control over their budgeting. The process is more straightforward, and they have ongoing support in place if anything changes.

In their own words

“Our overall experience with Staffordshire Chambers Energy Services has been extremely positive. Giovanni and Aaron have provided expert advice, tailored solutions, and ongoing support that made managing our energy costs much easier and more efficient.

From the initial consultation to helping us switch to better tariffs, they streamlined the entire process and saved us money. Their team was knowledgeable, responsive, and focused on finding the best options for our specific needs.

Thanks to Giovanni and Aaron for their guidance, we've seen cost savings, improved energy efficiency, and a more straightforward approach to managing our energy contracts. Working with Staffordshire Chambers Energy Services has been a game-changer for our business." - Stephanie Corbett, Business Development and Support Lead
