YES Energy Solutions bring home national award Oct 01, 2019

We were named winners of Project Management Company of the Year at the National Energy Efficiency Awards on Friday (27th September) in Birmingham.

The award recognised our management of multiple energy efficiency schemes that provide funding for vulnerable customers in fuel poverty for the installation of A-rated boilers and insulation.

Last year we delivered 33 schemes on behalf of a range of organisations which include councils, housing associations and charities that span Great Britain.

Throughout last year the company improved the warmth and comfort of 5,181 homes which made savings on energy bills that total over £58 million.

The projects recognised with the award include the Better Homes Yorkshire scheme, the Connecting Homes for Health scheme in Durham, and the North Yorkshire County Council Warm Homes Fund.

Katie Baker, YES Energy Solutions Head of Operations, achieved second place in the Business Development Manager.

In addition, our project with Amey and the Ministry of Defence took third place in the highly contested Insulation and Fabric Project category, and we were highly commended as Funding Providers of the Year.

Representatives from YES Energy Solutions were presented with the awards by television actor James Nesbitt OBE at the Birmingham VOX Venue.

YES Energy Solutions invited 13 partners to join them at the awards, many of whom contributed to the success achieved on the evening.

The National Energy Efficiency Awards celebrate success in the energy efficiency industry, and recognise innovation and success in helping people in fuel poverty whilst reducing CO₂ emissions.

YES Energy Solutions’ CEO, Duncan McCombie, said: “Our teams work very hard to deliver our projects to provide support for people suffering from fuel poverty, so it is great to see our staff recognised by this award.

“The ceremony has been the cherry on top of a successful year in which we’ve taken on more projects and more local staff to achieve our mission of reducing CO₂ and helping vulnerable people in fuel poverty.”

Katie Baker explained: “We are immensely proud of all of our projects and receiving recognition for our work is very special indeed, credit has to go to our hard working teams.

“I was amazed that I was awarded with second place as there is so many great individuals working in our industry.”

The accolades follow previous success at the Energy Efficiency Awards for YES Energy Solutions in which the Halifax based company has won Funding Provider of the Year in 2018 and 2017.
