Energy Saving Opportunity Scheme

ESOS Phase 3 solutions made easy

ESOS is a mandatory energy assessment scheme for qualifying UK organisations. These assessments identify cost-effective energy-saving measures for buildings, industrial processes, and transport. Phase 3 of the scheme must be completed by June 5, 2024. To qualify for Phase 3, an organisation must be a "large undertaking" in the UK with 250+ employees or an annual turnover exceeding £44 million and an annual balance sheet total exceeding £38 million.

At Trident Utilities, we specialise in providing comprehensive solutions for ESOS Phase 3 compliance. Our in-house ESOS experts are here to guide you through every step of the process, ensuring that your organisation meets all the qualification criteria and fulfils its obligations under this mandatory scheme.

Benefits of complying with ESOS

Complying with ESOS not only avoids penalties but also brings significant benefits to your organisation. Our experts will enlighten you on the advantages of complying with ESOS, such as identifying cost-saving opportunities, improving energy efficiency, and enhancing your corporate reputation as a responsible and sustainable business.

What will ESOS Phase 4 look like?

The government has stressed that Phase 4 will focus on covering Net Zero as well as energy efficiency, to support the Net Zero 2050 target. The recent changes in data requirements for ESOS Phase 3 to include Phase 1 & 2 improvements may mean Phase 4 could be based on the impact of the efficiency measures your business undertook during previous ESOS assesments.

What else will Phase 4 include?

Certain data will become mandatory to be made public. Examples include carbon reduction targets and Net Zero assessments.

What are the penalties for not complying?

A fixed penalty of £5,000 plus an additional £500 per day until notification is completed (up to a maximum of £90,000. Other penalties could be damage to reputation for not complying and the cost of lost opportunity from failing to identify energy-saving measures.

Has the ESOS Phase 3 deadline changed?

Yes, the deadline was extended to 5th June 2024 in June 2023 due to the increased data requirements announced a month earlier. This six-month extension is to give ESOS-qualifying organisations more time to fulfil their compliance. The Environment Agency made no changes to the qualification criteria.

Is it harder to submit ESOS Phase 3 data than it is for ESOS Phase 1 or 2?

Yes, you now need to submit significantly increased levels of data to completely fulfil your ESOS phase 3 compliance compared to both Phase 1 and Phase 2. This was due to the Environment Agency announcing an increase in the ESOS Phase 3 data requirements in May 2023 followed by a 6-month ESOS Phase 3 deadline extension to 5th June 2024.
