Property energy intelligence

Make every commercial building a better energy decision.

Plendor analyses buildings and portfolios, then models the energy ecosystem that makes sense for each one: solar, storage, heat, charging, building fabric and financial modelling.

Find the buildings worth building on.

Plendor screens commercial and industrial buildings at scale, then ranks them on the evidence it holds: roof, demand, EPC, grid and commercial context. Scroll to watch a flat schedule resolve into a priority order.

How Eco works

The question isn’t which measure. It’s which combination.

Eco compares technology combinations against the building’s physical, operational and financial context. It answers not only “Can we install solar?” but “What combination of energy assets creates the strongest overall outcome?”

01

Understand the building

Roof, irradiance, demand profile, EPC, tariffs, grid and site constraints, each with a confidence level attached.

Build scenarios

Solar, battery, heat pump, EV charging and fabric measures, combined rather than assessed one at a time, each mix carrying its own financial model.

Compare outcomes

Capital required, savings, payback, return, energy impact, EPC and ESG, compared side by side so the trade-offs between them stay visible.

Test the sustainability outcome

What the measures do to carbon, to the asset rating and to the regulatory position, produced by the same run as the financial appraisal rather than as a separate exercise.

Band B, ahead of the 2031 minimum proposed for rented buildings over 1,000 m². Carbon is counted on both carriers (grid 0.131, gas 0.183 kgCO₂e/kWh, DESNZ 2026), which is why site carbon falls further than grid import: the heat pump ends the gas burn while adding electricity.
