Energy Champion: Energy and ESOS Phase 2, Awareness and staff engagement
Overview :
An increasing number of organisations, of all sizes and sectors, are placing more focus on Energy Awareness and Management. The cost of energy continues to increase, and legal drivers directly incentivise organisations to take action. ESOS Phase 2 reports are due to be submitted to the regulators before December 2019. At the same time, the climate continues to warm and customers expect organisations to play their part, contribute and make more eco-conscious products and services available.
