Voltage
Optimisation.
Reduce avoidable electricity consumption and improve energy efficiency across your commercial premises. Olympus Power helps businesses assess and implement voltage optimisation solutions designed to manage incoming voltage and reduce unnecessary energy waste.
We assess your site’s electrical characteristics and operational requirements to identify suitable optimisation opportunities and evaluate potential savings before installation.
Optimised Voltage.
A More Efficient Business.
Electricity efficiency starts with understanding how power is supplied and consumed across your site. Voltage optimisation can help suitable commercial premises reduce avoidable electricity consumption by managing incoming voltage more effectively. Olympus Power assesses your electrical requirements to identify opportunities for measurable improvement.
Reduce Energy Costs
By reducing unnecessary electricity consumption in suitable electrical loads, voltage optimisation can help lower energy expenditure and improve long-term operating efficiency. Potential savings depend on your site’s voltage and consumption profile.
Support Equipment Performance
Managing voltage within appropriate operating parameters can help reduce electrical stress on certain types of equipment. Suitability depends on the equipment installed and its individual voltage requirements.
Improve Voltage Management
Maintain a more appropriate voltage supply for compatible equipment and reduce exposure to unnecessarily high incoming voltage. Some systems may also offer additional power-conditioning capabilities.
Every site is different. The effectiveness of voltage optimisation depends on incoming voltage levels, electrical equipment and consumption patterns. Olympus Power can evaluate these factors before recommending an appropriate solution.
Is Your Business Paying More for Electricity Than It Needs To?
Your incoming voltage could be contributing to unnecessary energy expenditure.
Many commercial buildings receive electricity
at voltage levels above those required by some
of their equipment. Where suitable, voltage
optimisation can help reduce avoidable consumption
without requiring major changes to everyday
business operations.
Olympus Power evaluates your site’s electrical
characteristics, energy demand and equipment
requirements to identify appropriate opportunities
for improved efficiency.
- Assess potential savings before investment
- Identify suitable opportunities across commercial premises
- Develop a solution around your operational requirements

Voltage optimisation helps manage incoming electricity supply to provide a more appropriate voltage for compatible equipment. Explore the illustrative comparison below.
Illustrative Voltage Profile
Compare incoming supply voltage with an example optimised output across the same period.
Incoming supply voltage can vary throughout the day. Some equipment may receive a higher voltage than necessary for efficient operation.
Illustrative example only. These figures do not represent measured performance at an Olympus Power installation. Actual incoming voltage, output voltage, regulation performance and energy savings depend on the site, equipment and voltage optimisation system selected. Not all systems maintain a fixed output voltage.

Get Started With Voltage Optimisation In 3 Simple Steps
From initial review through to installation, Olympus Power makes the process straightforward, transparent, and tailored to your site.
1. Initial Review
We start by understanding your site, energy usage, and operational requirements. This gives us the information needed to assess whether voltage optimisation is the right fit.
2. Free Site Assessment
Our team carries out a detailed review of your supply and infrastructure, helping identify projected savings, technical suitability, and the best route forward for your business.
3. Installation & Support
Once approved, installation is planned around your operations to minimise disruption. We then ensure everything is set up correctly for long-term performance and savings.
Is Voltage Optimisation Right for Your Business?
Voltage optimisation can offer energy efficiency opportunities for commercial and industrial premises, particularly where incoming voltage is higher than required by suitable electrical equipment.
However, not every site will achieve the same results. Incoming voltage, equipment types, operating patterns and existing infrastructure all influence the potential benefits.
Olympus Power takes a site-specific approach, assessing your electrical requirements before recommending a suitable solution.
Discuss Your Site RequirementsWhat is voltage optimisation and how does it work?
Voltage optimisation is a technology used to manage the voltage supplied to electrical equipment. Where incoming voltage is higher than necessary, a suitable system can reduce or regulate it to a more appropriate level.
This can reduce energy consumption in certain voltage-dependent electrical loads.
Can voltage optimisation reduce electricity bills?
It can reduce electricity consumption in suitable applications, potentially lowering energy expenditure. Actual savings depend on the site’s incoming voltage, equipment characteristics and consumption profile. Savings should be assessed before investment.
Which businesses are suitable for voltage optimisation?
Commercial buildings, manufacturing facilities, warehouses, hospitality venues and other electricity-intensive premises may be suitable. However, high energy consumption alone does not establish suitability. The types of electrical equipment and incoming voltage levels are important considerations.
What voltage should commercial equipment operate at?
UK low-voltage electricity supply is nominally 230 V between phase and neutral, with a permitted tolerance of +10% and -6%. Three-phase supplies are commonly described as 400 V between phases.
Individual equipment has its own operating voltage requirements, so the appropriate optimised output must be determined through a technical assessment.
Can voltage optimisation work alongside solar panels and battery storage?
Yes, voltage optimisation may be integrated alongside solar PV, battery storage and other energy technologies, subject to electrical compatibility and system design. Olympus Power can assess how different technologies could work together across your site.
Will installation disrupt business operations?
Installation requirements vary depending on the system, site infrastructure and electrical connection arrangements. Some installations require a planned interruption to the power supply. Olympus Power can coordinate the installation around operational requirements to help minimise disruption.
Can voltage optimisation be installed across multiple sites?
Yes. Businesses operating multiple premises can assess voltage optimisation opportunities across their estate. Each location should be evaluated individually, as electrical infrastructure, equipment and potential benefits may differ between sites.
