See the true cost of every desk in your office, how much energy empty desks waste, and what you could save with real-time occupancy data.
Cost Per Desk
Where Your Money Goes
Every desk in your office costs an estimated €15,000/year. Here's how that breaks down.
That's €1,250 per desk, per month, whether someone sits there or not.
Rent / Lease
Base rent for office space
Rates + Service Charge
Commercial rates and building service charges
Energy + Utilities
Electricity, heating, water
Facilities + Cleaning

Energy Waste
The Hidden Cost of Empty Desks
With 55% occupancy, 90 desks sit empty every day, still drawing power from monitors, chargers, and peripherals.
Per year on phantom power at empty desks
Per year, electricity powering nobody
Equivalent to 217 trees needed to offset
Occupancy ROI
What Occupancy Data Unlocks
You're spending €5,400/day on 90 empty desks. That's €1,350,000/year in occupancy waste. Here's how real data turns that into savings.
Space Optimisation
If occupancy data enables even a 5% desk reduction, that's 10 desks you can consolidate, sublet, or eliminate from your next lease.
Lease Negotiation Power
Hard utilisation data strengthens your position at renewal. Even a 2% improvement on rent, backed by evidence of actual usage, adds up fast.
Avoid Premature Expansion
Before signing for a new floor, know if you actually need one. Delaying unnecessary expansion by even one year avoids significant capital expenditure.
ESG Compliance & Reporting
Automated energy and occupancy reporting for ESG disclosure. Replace manual data collection with real-time, auditable metrics.
Combined Strategic Value
Even recovering a fraction of occupancy waste pays for itself many times over
These are conservative estimates. The total annual occupancy waste for your office is €1,350,000. The pathways above represent a small fraction of what's recoverable once you have real utilisation data to act on.
