How to choose your ESOS Assessor

March 31, 2017

DON’T LEAVE CHOOSING ONE TOO LATE

There are fewer than 500 lead assessors available for the 10,000 plus organisations which need to comply with ESOS. As the year moves on there will be real pressure on supply and the longer you leave it, the harder it will be to find an assessor to work with you due to their work commitments.

ENSURE YOU CHOOSE A QUALIFIED ESOS LEAD ASSESSOR

Lead Assessors must be qualified by one of the 15 Professional bodies. Enistic have several qualified ESOS assessors who are a key part of our Easy ESOS service which is currently taking organisations through compliance.

GET THEM INVOLVED FROM THE START

It’s crucial to start on the right path to compliance. Speaking with one of our ESOS assessors from the start of the project will ensure a clear route to compliance is mapped out, ensuring that your organisation meets the legislation requirements and nothing is left out.

The Lead Assessor will act as your project manager, ensuring at least 90% of total energy consumption is identified, sufficient energy audits are carried out, energy savings opportunities are sufficient including ROI & LCCA and finally review and sign off the ESOS evidence pack.

ENSURE THEY HAVE SUPPORT

Since the ESOS legislation was announced, hundreds of companies have announced they provide ESOS compliance. It’s crucial to ensure the ESOS assessor and company you choose has the resource available to oversee and undertake the work required.

At Enistic, we have several ESOS qualified assessors, dedicated project managers, energy auditors, market leading software, consultants and support staff so you can rest assured we can take you through ESOS compliance in an effective manner.

CHOOSE ONE WHO GUARANTEES COMPLIANCE

Entrusting your ESOS compliance with an ESOS assessor and company is no mean feat with the heavy fines and public disclosure for non-compliance. Therefore it’s important you choose an assessor that guarantees compliance as part of their contract.

Our Easy ESOS scheme offers you an all-in-one service to guaranteed ESOS compliance.

Starting with an free, no obligation scoping meeting we will:

1 Conduct an ESOS Assessment

2. Conduct Energy Audits

3. Identify Energy Saving Opportunities and create evidence pack

4. Lead Assessor review and sign off

5. Get Board Director Sign Off
