Energy Compliance

Energy and carbon reporting requirements can be difficult to navigate, particularly for larger organisations and multi-site businesses.

Orbital can help you understand which energy compliance requirements may apply to your organisation, organise the utility and consumption information needed and support you through the process.

Our energy compliance support can include areas such as:

• Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS)
• Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR)
• ISO 50001 energy management
• Energy consumption data
• Multi-site energy information
• Energy efficiency opportunities
• Ongoing utility and consumption management

If specialist assessment, certification or professional sign-off is required, we can help coordinate the appropriate support.

The Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) framework requires certain UK companies and organisations to report information about their energy use and carbon emissions within their annual reporting.

Orbital can help customers organise and understand the energy information required to support their reporting process.

This may include:

• Electricity consumption
• Gas consumption
• Energy usage across multiple locations
• Utility data collection
• Consumption records
• Supporting information for energy reporting

Where specialist carbon accounting, financial reporting or professional advice is required, customers should use an appropriately qualified adviser.

Our role is to help make the underlying utility information easier to obtain, organise and manage.

ISO 50001 is an international standard for energy management systems designed to help organisations establish a structured approach to monitoring and improving energy performance.

For organisations considering ISO 50001, Orbital can support the utility and energy-management elements of the process, including:

• Energy consumption information
• Meter and supply information
• Multi-site data
• Consumption monitoring
• Energy-management reporting
• Identifying areas that may require further investigation

Formal ISO 50001 certification must be provided by an appropriately accredited certification body.

For organisations participating in ESOS, an appropriately certified ISO 50001 energy management system may also provide a route towards meeting relevant ESOS requirements.

Compliance becomes more complicated when an organisation operates across multiple properties.

Different sites can have:

• Different suppliers
• Different meters
• Different billing periods
• Different consumption profiles
• Missing or estimated data

Orbital Utility Management can help bring this information together and maintain a clearer picture of energy consumption across your organisation.

We can help organise:

• Property and site information
• MPANs and MPRNs
• Electricity and gas consumption
• Meter information
• Supplier information
• Utility bills
• Half-hourly data where available
• Historical consumption

This can make future energy reporting, procurement and compliance considerably easier to manage.

 Good energy management starts with understanding what your organisation is using.

Rather than trying to find years of utility information when a reporting deadline arrives, Orbital can help maintain better visibility of your energy portfolio throughout the year.

That information can also support:

Business Energy Procurement

Utility & Account Management

Property & Multi-Site Utility Management

Consumption & Capacity Management
