Our Head of Sustainability Ian Keenleyside would like to share his views on the forthcoming Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) regulations, as the Environment Agency (EA) announces they will increase their enforcement approach.
Whereas previously the EA would typically only issue a maximum penalty for one breach, for example a failure to notify was considered a failure to carry out an energy audit, therefore the maximum fine would only be for one failure, the new enforcement means each failure will be considered separately and the maximum penalty will be assigned per breach. As below;
We are eagerly awaiting the outcome of the recent consultation on the proposed updates to the ESOS scheme, and very much in favour or incorporating net-zero carbon into the auditing requirements. Here at E.S.G Solutions as well as providing full ESOS lead assessor services we can also tailor our reports to incorporate wider ESG matters and broader environmental and wellbeing certification.
