Our Vision

The MarketCompanies are embracing energy efficiency - given the clear brand benefits of reducing carbon emissions while minimizing their exposure to energy and carbon price rises and volatility.

For some companies, a 20% cut in energy costs represents the same bottom line benefit as a 5% increases in sales.

Large corporate asset owners are also broadening their energy and carbon efforts by switching to a renewable supply - sourcing electricity from renewable sources including solar, wind and tidal. The move is part of securing energy supply while also reducing costs and minimising overall carbon footprint.

In summary, energy represents a critical cost (and risk) component for any organisation, and therein lies the opportunity. We work with clients to help make energy a competitive differentiator while positively impacting both the environment and society. There are several important reasons for your businessto prioritise energy services including:

Commercial - making use of new and innovative ways to manage energy often resulting in cost reduction.

Environmental - addressing the causes of climate change, minimising pollution and findingalternative energy supplies.

Legislative - complying with the law to minimise the environmental impact of businesses.

Resources - consider whether you’ve got the right staff in place, with sufficient skills and capability. You could consider a specialist Energy Services company to help you with this.

Finance - You may need additional funding to get your energy project off the ground - your bank, venture capital firms, fund managers and pension trustees are all possible sources of funding.Alternatively, you may prefer to set up a partnership with Fastflow where we both share in the investment and returns.

More About Us

The Fastflow Group is a mid market business operating predominantly in the UK providing a comprehensive range

of services ranging from infrastructure design, investigation, planning to construction, installation, rehabilitation and

replacement. Since the company’s formation in 1991, we have combined our expertise with continued

investment in technology, developing long term relationships with our clients. Initially formed as a joint venture be-

tween two European-owned organisations; a German tunnelling & pipeline specialist and a UK water supply company.

Since a management buy-in in 2005, Fastflow Group has substantially increased its range off services and evolved into

a dynamic, independent support services company. Understanding our clients specific needs and also the wider mar-

ket demand has been fundamantal to our growth. Building on this solid foundation we have incorporated SmartFlow

Energy Services as wholly owned subsidiary, to provide innovative solutions to our existing and new customer base.

Our range of blue chip clients and business partners places us in a unique position in the rapidly evolving low carbon

economy.
