For large businesses in the UK, compliance with the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) is a legal requirement, but at SDG, we believe it can also be a catalyst for transformational change.
The Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) is a mandatory energy assessment and savings initiative established by the UK government. It applies to large UK undertakings and their corporate groups, specifically organisations that meet any of the following criteria:
Under ESOS, qualifying businesses must measure their total energy consumption across buildings, industrial processes, and transport, and identify cost-effective energy saving opportunities every four years.
We work with businesses that want to go beyond box-ticking. While ESOS compliance is a baseline legal obligation, we believe that the real value lies in how organisations respond to their findings, and that’s exactly where we come in.
At SDG, we transform energy management. We help clients exceed compliance, turning insights into actionable strategies for immediate savings and long-term ESG alignment. This integrated approach reduces waste, improves environmental performance, and differentiates you in competitive markets, positioning you as a sustainable industry leader.
More businesses are assessing the Scope 3 emissions in their supply chains, meaning your organisation’s energy profile could directly impact your attractiveness as a supplier or collaborator.
By improving your internal energy usage, you also become part of the solution for other businesses looking to meet their own sustainability goals creating a ripple effect that extends far beyond your own operations.
Alongside our innovative ESG management system, ROOT, our expert team will help you and your business to:
Unlike one-size-fits-all audits, our approach is bespoke and designed to empower your team with actionable insights and long-term solutions based on your business needs.
