As your trusted decarbonisation partner, we manage every stage from survey to completion, through to ongoing maintenance. Get in touch with us today to see how we can support your environmental goals.
Our decarbonisation services
Every building is different, with unique energy demands, existing infrastructure and operational requirements. That’s why at Cooper Weston, we take a bespoke approach to building energy efficiency upgrades.
We assess your current systems, identify where energy is being wasted, and recommend the upgrades that will deliver the greatest impact. Our services cover key areas of mechanical and electrical performance, including heating, cooling, lighting, controls, power and renewable energy.
Building Management System installation
Low-carbon heating upgrades
Air source heat pump installation
Building Management System (BMS) installation
One of the most impactful steps in any net-zero building strategy is installing a smart Building Management System (BMS). We install and support BMS solutions for commercial and industrial buildings, providing real-time oversight and automated control of your facility’s key systems, including HVAC, lighting, power, and security.
Our team manages the entire project: full cabling infrastructure, sensor and control integration, and close collaboration with our preferred BMS supplier. We configure each system to your specific requirements, whether that’s monitoring energy consumption, regulating temperatures based on occupancy, or automating lighting schedules to reduce waste.
Benefits of a professionally installed BMS include:
- Ongoing support and maintenance to keep the system performing optimally
- Significant reduction in energy waste and carbon emissions
- Real-time visibility over building performance and energy use
- Automated controls that reduce reliance on manual oversight
Low-carbon heating and heat pump upgrades
Replacing outdated, inefficient boilers and fossil fuel-based systems with modern low-carbon heating can make a significant difference to both energy performance and environmental impact.
We install both air-source and ground-source heat pumps, which use renewable heat from the surrounding air or ground to provide efficient heating and hot water for commercial properties and larger domestic buildings.
Our heat pump installation service covers every stage: initial surveys and feasibility assessments, system design and equipment supply, expert installation, and full commissioning. We size and configure each system to your building’s specific requirements to maximise energy savings and reduce emissions long-term.
LED lighting upgrades
Outdated incandescent and fluorescent lighting is a common source of energy waste. Upgrading to energy-saving LED lighting can reduce your building’s lighting energy consumption by 50–60% or more, while offering a longer lifespan and reduced maintenance requirements – one of the fastest-payback investments in building energy efficiency.
We manage the complete LED lighting upgrade process, including:
- Lighting audits to identify inefficiencies and opportunities
- Custom plans tailored to your building layout and usage
- Supply and installation of high-quality LED equipment
- Integration of smart controls: occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting sensors, and programmable time switches for further energy savings
Solar PV installation
Solar photovoltaic (PV) panels offer your building a direct route to generating emissions-free electricity on site, reducing reliance on carbon-intensive grid power and lowering energy costs.
Our experienced commercial solar panel installers manage every stage of your project from initial site assessment through to panel selection, permitting, installation, and grid connection.
We design each solar array for maximum energy production, ensuring optimal orientation and equipping systems with smart inverters to make the most of every hour of daylight. Once operational, your solar PV system will make a measurable contribution to your net zero goals.

FAQs
What do Cooper Weston’s decarbonisation services include?
Cooper Weston’s domestic and commercial decarbonisation services include Building Management System installation, low-carbon heating upgrades, heat pump installation, commercial LED lighting upgrades, solar PV installation, energy-efficiency improvements, and ongoing maintenance support.
How does a Building Management System (BMS) help reduce carbon emissions?
A smart BMS gives you real-time control over HVAC, lighting, power, and security systems, allowing you to optimise energy use, eliminate waste, and automate operations to minimise unnecessary consumption. It’s one of the highest-impact investments in any net zero building strategy.
Can LED lighting upgrades reduce energy bills?
Yes. LED lighting upgrades can significantly reduce lighting energy use compared with older incandescent or fluorescent systems. When combined with smart controls such as occupancy sensors and timers, commercial LED lighting can help cut costs, reduce maintenance and lower carbon emissions.
