We recently helped Woking and Horsell Cricket Club make significant savings on their energy bills. We could tell you all about it, but Trevor Woods, the club secretary, has done such a sterling job of it, we’ll let him tell you.
Trevor Woods, Secretary, Woking & Horsell Cricket Club, said “I attended the Surrey Cricket Foundation Dataquest Club Conference at The Oval on March 20th. This is an annual get together of Surrey Cricket clubs to share best practice amongst clubs in Surrey, to inform clubs about what is going on in Surrey Cricket and to have a chance to speak with suppliers. marketers of cricket and cricket related goods and commodities.
One suggestion in the paperwork sent to all clubs in advance, was to visit the Fidelity Energy booth at the conference armed with your club’s latest gas and electricity bills and Fidelity Energy would see if they could find a more economical solution for your club’s energy needs.
During the lunch break and with some trepidation, I approached their desk at the conference. They explained what Fidelity Energy did and how they operated and took a copy of my bills and promised to get back to me within a day or so. It was far less painful than I expected and they were friendly and clear in their approach and did not force anything upon me or my club. Fidelity Energy came back to me within 24 hours of our meeting and presented me with estimates for the possible savings that could be made if we were to switch energy companies and sign up with a new supplier that they had found on our behalf.
This was a very attractive offer, which showed savings of nearly £5,500 in our energy bills over the next 2-3 years. This was a very attractive proposition which needed my club’s “Committee approval” before we could proceed. This unfortunately delayed our take up of this offer by a couple of days, by which time the estimated savings had reduced slightly. However, within a few days we had signed up with ENGIE Energy Solutions and the deal was done. All energy companies buy their fuel “ahead” and with the current oil prices just starting to rise again after being at a 10 year low now is the best time to really look at your club’s energy bills. With saving like ours being possible, you never know, your club might be able to afford that long awaited project after all! I suggest you contact Fidelity Energy as soon as possible to see what your club might be able to save. There is no harm in asking the question.”
