Stephen Peal Managing Director
NCZ and Alan have really helped our business to understand what carbon impact we have been having, but more importantly are advising us on what measures we can take to reduce this. I wasn’t expecting the level of support NCZ gave; it’s been a really good experience having you there all the way. And the savings you’ve helped me achieve, for example, on my electricity bill, have been incredible…
Steve DouganGeneral Manager
I had a bit of hesitation to start with, because I thought it would take a bit too much of my time to collect the data. But you guys did a lot of that work using your technology, so once that was done, you made it a streamlined, pain-free process.
Jon WhiteheadDirector
NCZ have a deep understanding of energy-related matters. Rianne and Alan are well-versed in various energy-saving strategies, technologies, and regulations. We now better understand our carbon impact and how we can reduce it.
Jason Laventine Support Services Manager
