What is an energy conscious organisation?

Last updated: 31st August 2021

Changing behaviour is a sometimes forgotten, but highly effective, part of the energy management armoury. This is the compelling motive behind the launch of a new initiative “The Energy Conscious Organisation” by ESTA, the Energy Services and Technology Association, in partnership with the Energy Institute.

A shift is required, and soon, to ensure that the ‘hidden’ savings available from behaviour change are realised.
