Who we are
So Energy was created in 2015 because we knew energy suppliers could be better. Since then, we've grown rapidly but sustainably, with 350,000 customers and over 450 Energists (what we call our people). But we're not done. We're on the road to a net zero future, and thanks to our partnership with ESB, we're well on the way. We're customer-centric, tech-led, and passionate about sustainability.
We want to do the best we can for our customers, each other, and our planet, so we've created a workplace that's encouraging, supportive, and offers the opportunity for growth. As a company, we live by six core values that guide everything we do:
Clear
Honest
Ambitious
Inquisitive
