of £500 per day until compliance is completed (maximum 80 days),
• Additionally, offending organisations will be named publicly on the regulators website.

compliance in any case.
Non Compliance (Fines)

11. • ESOS is a mandatory scheme but there are benefits to it:
– Reduce costs though reduced energy bills/usage and limited exposure to fines
– Understand energy consumption in your organisation
– Help with green credentials
– Get board level buy in of energy management

• Costs will vary depending on organisations structure, locations and processes.
• Based on number of days.
• Should be minimal when compare to the savings opportunities highlighted.
• It is important to remember that audit cost are likely to be less than potential fines.
