Register nowWhat does BEAS offer?
The Business Energy Advice Service (BEAS) is a pilot programme that offers free energy assessments to small-to-medium businesses across the West Midlands.
After registering online, BEAS will provide a business assessment to identify opportunities for energy optimisation and cost reduction.
You can then apply for a 50% match-funded grant for commercial and industrial SMEs to facilitate investment in energy efficiency measures. Your local authority will administer these grants.
How do I register?
If you're an SME that pays business rates within the West Midlands Combined Authority—including Birmingham, Solihull, Sandwell, Dudley, Walsall, Wolverhampton, and Coventry—please register with us below.
Outside the West Midlands Combined Authority?
Please choose the correct region from the options below to ensure you are referred to the appropriate local authority. Registering for the wrong authority may delay your assessment.
Who is delivering BEAS?
The programme has six Primary Delivery Partners (PDP), including Warwickshire County Council, Worcester County Council and Staffordshire County Council who deliver a mix of standard and energy-intensive assessments and grants on behalf of the programme in their specific geographic areas.
Aston University will deliver standard and energy-intensive assessments within the WMCA area (Birmingham, Sandwell, Dudley, Coventry, Solihull, Walsall and Wolverhampton).
