Energy prices keep rising. Commercial businesses needed to cut ventilation costs without expensive system replacements. Cheetah integrates with existing EC fans, inverter drives and Building Management Systems. No complex retrofits required.
The Challenge
Commercial buildings with catering facilities waste significant energy on ventilation. Traditional systems run at constant speed regardless of cooking activity. Companies needed technology with short payback periods that worked with existing equipment.
The Solution
Cheetah was installed across four commercial sites. It integrated with existing fans, drives and BMS systems. The system adjusts fan speeds based on cooking activity. Full power during busy periods, reduced speeds when quieter and minimum when no cooking happens. This cuts wasted energy while maintaining proper ventilation.
The Results
Average per site: 33,100 kWh saved annually, 7.4 tonnes CO₂ reduced, £8,200 saved. 60% fan energy reduction. 1-year payback.
Total across four sites: 132,700 kWh, £33,190, and 29.8 tonnes CO₂ saved annually. Short payback with no major system overhauls needed.
Ongoing Partnership
We've continued installations at BMW Oxford, Société Générale and Oracle. Businesses cut energy costs while working with existing infrastructure.
