Green energy consultancy awarded B Corp certification

Green energy consultancy U4L has been awarded its certification as a B Corp.

Founded in Bournemouth in 2016, U4L has helped hundreds of businesses across the UK – from hotel groups and restaurants to schools and manufacturing plants – to become more energy efficient and reduce their carbon impact.

Becoming B Corp-certified marks a significant milestone for U4L as it continue to expand its consulting services nationwide. With a focus on transparency and education, U4L offers a comprehensive range of services from renewable energy procurement to energy reduction technologies and compliance advice.

Steve Baigent, energy consultant at U4L, said: “Becoming a B Corp-certified business is a significant milestone for U4L and it’s an honour to be the first full-service energy consultancy from the South West to do so. This certification underscores U4L’s commitment to making a positive impact on the environment and society, which is integral to the ethos of our company and our people.

“As the world continues to transition to green energy sources, the energy industry’s impact on the environment has never been under closer scrutiny. There is clear demand for greater accountability and transparency in our sector – we hope our progress in these areas can inspire other businesses to follow suit.”
