Supporting Smarter, More Sustainable CRE Buildings
The UK commercial real estate sector continues to evolve, offering growth and investment opportunities and presenting clients with increasingly complex compliance and operational challenges.
From developers preparing new or refurbished assets for sale or letting, to portfolio operators managing shell-and-core areas across multiple properties, and tenants occupying space within landlord-operated buildings, the needs across CRE are diverse and ever-changing.
Many clients are now required to comply with an expanding range of government schemes — such as ESOS and, soon, Heat Network Technical Assessment Schemes (HNTAS) — often investing significant operational budgets to meet compliance requirements, with limited visible return, just to achieve the necessary tick in the box. Here, the Zerith Concept & our AI Platform can really support you to realise savings of over 50% compared to, for example, completing ESOS Phase 4 through the established route.
The Zerith Concept changes that. By combining technical expertise with innovation and in-house capability building, we help CRE clients turn compliance into operational improvement, cost savings, and measurable value.
We can support you to complete your own energy audits, then follow this up with Zerith support in BeMS Optimisation and expanding this through to look at how to make your CRE Building or Space into a genuine Smart Office/Building, looking at presence detection, flexible temperature and ventilation levels, intelligent lighting and power sockets.
As new frameworks, such as the Heat Network Technical Assurance Scheme (HNTAS), introduce added reporting complexity and new or refurbishment Design, Construction, Commissioning, and Proving Targets, while also involving decision-making on connection to district energy systems versus retaining or upgrading on-site systems. We are CIBSE-accredited and HNTAS-approved Consultants who can offer clear, concise, and affordable support.
While the Minimum Energy Efficiency Scheme represents a significant investment that many developers need to undertake to benchmark, then plan and execute various roadmaps of enhancements to older buildings to maintain the necessary EPC rating at each gateway. Here, our deep experience in building modelling and HVAC systems ensures clients make informed, cost-effective, and carbon-conscious decisions.

Supporting NHS and Primary Care Trusts to Reduce Costs and Improve Patient Environments
The NHS and Primary Care Trusts face increasing pressure, with restricted budgets, soaring energy costs, and limited capital available for major infrastructure projects — all while being tasked with reducing emissions and developing credible decarbonisation plans to meet the NHS’s 2040 objectives.
Healthcare buildings are among the most technically demanding environments, governed by strict standards such as HTM and HBN, which define how facilities must be designed, built, commissioned, and operated.
With over five decades of combined experience, Zerith brings deep technical understanding across the healthcare sector — from design and build to commissioning, operation, certification, and energy auditing.
Our Experience and Insight is that many NHS estates still operate with legacy inefficiencies hidden within HVAC systems, Building Energy Management Systems (BeMS), and plant infrastructure. Zerith’s independent audits uncover these inefficiencies and identify both risk factors and achievable savings.
Recent projects have shown that:
3–5% savings can be achieved through BeMS strategy optimisation and setpoint adjustments.
2–3% savings can result from replacing failed sensors or control valves.
5–7% savings can be unlocked through targeted medium-level investment, often delivering 2–5 year paybacks.
Our detailed technical reviews of heating, cooling, ventilation, lighting, and power systems also help identify operational risks such as single points of failure, providing a roadmap for prioritised investment and reliability improvements.
Zerith advocates a system-by-system approach — systematically analysing Building Management Systems and core plant to release operational energy savings of 10–15%.
We recommend this optimisation process be completed before committing to large-scale decarbonisation strategies. By reducing baseline energy demand first, trusts can then design an optimised, cost-effective Net Zero pathway tailored to actual, reduced consumption levels.
Zerith combines technical expertise, innovation, and independent insight to create bespoke decarbonisation pathways for healthcare estates.
We don’t rely on pre-packaged solutions — every strategy we develop is unique to your site, maximising efficiency, performance, and return on investment.
