Charities Buying Group and SSE Energy Solutions


Start your journey: Sustainability for organisations making a difference
Whether you’re a charity, care home, school, GP practice, university, council, or community group, your work is vital to the people you serve. At SSE Energy Solutions, we recognise that organisations like yours are powered by a different kind of energy – one that’s measured not just in kilowatts and carbon, but in the positive impact you create every day.

Why Sustainability Matters
Sustainability isn’t just about reaching net zero. It’s about making the most of every resource, supporting communities, and leading by example. By taking steps to reduce energy use and waste, you can free up more funds for your core mission, build trust with those you serve, and show that positive change is possible.
Practical Steps for your Organisation
- Measure your impact: Use our free carbon footprint calculator to get a clear view of your organisation’s energy use and emissions.
- Set achievable goals: Small changes – like switching to LED lighting, improving insulation, or encouraging staff to save energy – can add up to big results.
- Engage your team: Involve employees, volunteers, and stakeholders in your sustainability journey. Share progress and celebrate successes.
- Access support: Visit our Net Zero Hub for practical resources, funding opportunities, and expert advice.


Your Path, Your Priorities
Every organisation is unique, and your sustainability journey should reflect your values and the needs of those you serve. Whether you’re focused on cost savings, community leadership, or environmental impact, we’re here to support you with tailored advice and tools.
