Hello listeners! 🍃🗣️🎙️

Along side our main Sustainably Speaking podcast we are introducing a brand-new addition to the series: "Spotlight" 💡

In this series, we’ll be shining the light on Sustainable Energy First clients, partners, and green tech collaborators to highlight real-world sustainability success stories, case studies, and industry insights.

Whether we're speaking to a business that is making great strides in their sustainability efforts or one of our tech partners that does amazing work with us to help us inspire and empower others to raise their climate ambitions.

In our first Spotlight Series episode, we are introducing Puja Balachander the CEO and co-founder of UpGreen.

UpGreen are a retrofit finance and implementation platform accelerating the net zero journey for property owners and investors. UpGreen supports landlords in meeting UK MEES regulations by turning retrofit projects into investable propositions—combining AI-enabled business case analysis, project management, and post-retrofit performance data.

We also welcome our friend and colleague, Head of ESG, Phil Richards from Sustainable Energy First. He breaks down what ESG means to businesses and discusses the energy efficiency compliance issues with MEES and goes into detail on why we're looking to achieve improvements in terms of energy performance ratings.
