Why join SEA

We have decided to join the SEA because we believe their in-depth sector insight and their industry-network could be invaluable for a small SME like ourselves. This is a very critical time for energy efficiency - with numerous councils announcing climate emergency, and newly launched national schemes such as the Green Homes Grant or ECO4 – it is a perfect time to be part of such a proactive group and be on top of what’s going on in the sector!

CPL values the exposure given to the organisation by being a members of the SEA. We also benefit from the opportunity to raise awareness of policy issues of importance to us and to discuss common issues with other industry stakeholders. Having the backing of a leading industry association with a strong reputation for shaping policy which is comprised of such a wide range of organisations builds on CPL’s industry authority which ultimately has a positive impact on our commercial position.

Membership of the Sustainable Energy Association enables us to build insight into policy development, and input into the process, backed up by factual, reasoned arguments.

Gemserv shares SEA’s commitment to sustainable energy solutions. Our membership will enable us to work with our peers to promote energy efficiency and low carbon solutions as a single, unified, and well integrated, “demand side” approach.

Thermocill decided to become a member of the SEA after seeing the sustainable work that the SEA portray.
