Combined Independents Holdings (CIH), the electrical buying group that is part of Euronics, has formed a partnership in the UK with Loop, the free smart meter app that helps customers save an average of 15% on their energy bills.
The free Loop app helps more than 150k households improve their energy efficiency, lowering their energy bills by £250 on average and reducing their carbon footprint by an average of 250kg CO2e. Once the app is downloaded, it simply connects to a household’s smart meter, providing a detailed view of their energy use and personalised energy insights. Loop shows the energy homes are using but also what is being wasted by appliances being left on, a unique opportunity to highlight the impact of inefficient home appliances.
Rich Knapman, B2B acquisition & development manager at CIH, said: “Our members are experts in white goods and understand the rapid pace of technology, but consumers might not be aware of the cost savings that can be achieved by investing in an efficient solution. Loop helps households understand those energy savings and then provides a straightforward way for them to buy energy-efficient appliances from Euronics. Loop is available to any household with a smart meter in the UK meaning all CIH members can benefit from this partnership.”
Loop users can access the Euronics website to find the most energy-efficient appliances from the available Euronics range. A discount will be provided to the consumer for purchasing through the Loop app via a single-use voucher code.
Paul Tyler, CEO of CIH, added: “Linking with Loop allows us to reach a wider audience and attract more customers to our members’ stores. Combined with our Which? Recommended Provider endorsement and Feefo Gold Trusted Service award, our offering is compelling to Loop’s users, who would not necessarily make purchasing decisions on price alone.”
