Sustainable Energy First win ‘Best C…

The Hub was shortlisted alongside Starling Bank, Three UK, Bradford BID & Bevic Marketing, and Women of WithYou.

A platform built for business energy users

The Hub was launched in 2018 by Sustainable Energy First in response to a growing problem: Businesses were struggling to keep up with the UK’s increasingly complex energy and carbon regulations.

Since then, the Hub has grown into a trusted knowledge platform, supporting thousands of UK organisations, from NHS Trusts to retailers and universities. SE First aim to publish a wide range of accessible, jargon-free content, including:

• Policy explainers and compliance updates
• Downloadable tools and guides
• Net Zero news and insight

The key focus of the content is to give time-pressured professionals the clarity and confidence they need to act. It is free to access, with no ads or paywalls. It’s fully funded by Sustainable Energy First as part of SE First’s mission to make net zero achievable for more businesses, and may be suitable for our members.

Feedback from the judges:

“Tackling the critical topic of sustainable energy, Sustainable Energy First has built a high trust ecosystem through the Energy Advice Hub, offering clear, practical content without commercial barriers. The editorial approach is impressively multifaceted, all designed to support time-poor professionals in high-energy-use sectors. What truly sets this apart is the series’ organic strength: no paid promotion, yet demonstrable industry impact and audience growth”
