Finding efficiencies within controlled environments
Medical device manufacturers face a range of unique challenges. Not only must products be produced cost effectively to demanding targets, but cleanrooms need to be maintained at certain temperatures and pressures, and strict operational standards must be adhered to at all times.
For teams and business units looking to find production efficiencies, reduce their environmental impact, or manage OPEX impact for new assets and projects, Demand Response services offer suitable opportunities.
By choosing to participate in Demand Response, medical device manufactures can leverage certain on-site energy assets – standby generators, batteries, Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) – to provide Security of Supply for the national power grid. In doing so, they enable more renewable energy to be consumed nationally, and receive financial reward in return.
Fully Managed Demand Response
Our highly experienced engineers will help leverage and optimise your site’s existing assets for Demand Response participation. We have a proven track record of creating bespoke solutions for mission critical businesses and can deploy across multiple sites if required.

Reducing CO2 emissions is a key target for Boston Scientific, and we continuously seek to reduce our annual output. We saw an opportunity to reduce our CO2 levels through demand response with VIOTAS.
Together, we were able to optimise our CHP run times by 15-18%, in turn reducing our CO2 emissions while creating a new income source that goes straight to the bottom line.
