Case Study:
Milton Keynes Theatre, ATG Group

Background

​Milton Keynes Theatre, part of the Ambassador Theatre Group (ATG), has successfully implemented voltage optimisation technology to enhance energy efficiency and sustainability. This initiative led to significant reductions in energy consumption, operational costs, and carbon emissions.​

Project Overview:

To address rising energy costs and environmental concerns, Milton Keynes Theatre collaborated with Powerhub Solutions to install voltage optimisation technology. This system reduces the incoming voltage to a level more suitable for the theatre’s electrical equipment, thereby decreasing energy consumption without compromising performance.​

Key Achievements:

  • Energy Savings: Over a one-year period, the theatre saved 45,191.68 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity.​
  • Environmental Benefits: The project led to a reduction of 9,358.02 kilograms in CO₂ emissions.​

  • Return on Investment (ROI): The investment in voltage optimisation is projected to achieve a full return within 18 months.

Additional Benefits:

  • Equipment Protection: By maintaining optimal voltage levels, the theatre’s electrical equipment experiences less strain, leading to lower maintenance costs and extended operational life.​
  • Enhanced Efficiency: The voltage optimisation system contributes to higher overall energy efficiency, aligning with the theatre’s sustainability goals.​

Conclusion:

The successful implementation of voltage optimisation at Milton Keynes Theatre demonstrates the effectiveness of targeted energy reduction strategies in the arts and entertainment sector. The substantial savings and environmental benefits underscore the potential for similar venues to adopt such technologies, promoting sustainability and operational efficiency.
