This webinar discusses the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS), which requires large organizations in the UK to measure and report on their energy usage, conduct energy audits to identify savings opportunities, and pursue cost-effective measures. Non-compliance penalties include fines. The webinar emphasizes that ESOS compliance should be viewed as an opportunity to invest in energy efficiency and formalize best practices, noting many organizations have saved over £1 million annually through such efforts. Tools are demonstrated to help organizations manage energy data and projects in one centralized system to track savings and ROI over time.
