Energy Procurement for Schools & Academies in Hertfordshire
Your independent energy broker for schools in Hertfordshire
We are an independent energy broker working with schools, academy trusts and independent schools, from our base in Hemel Hempstead.
What you need from us depends on which you are. A multi-academy trust has a compliance question that now applies at every renewal. An independent school has a cost problem after three tax changes it did not choose. Pick the one that fits and we will get straight to it.
The Handbook's paragraph 2.29, the evidence your auditor will ask for, and estates sitting on a dozen inherited contracts.
Boarding load profiles, pool halls, holiday lettings, and a fee arrangement you can put in front of your governors.
Why Schools Choose Mindful Energy
We’re based in Hemel Hempstead, and work face-to-face with schools across the UK, not a call centre several counties away.
- Competitive tendering. Suppliers bid against each other in a live session rather than one at a time.A clear record of the tender. The offers received, side by side, so the decision can be shown rather than asserted.Bill validation. Invoices checked against agreed rates and actual consumption, with corrections pursued by us.
- Transparent about our fees. We tell you how we’re paid and exactly how much, in writing, before you commit to anything. See how our fees work here.
- A recognised education partner. We’re a proud Business Directory Partner of the Independent Schools’ Bursars Association (ISBA), supporting the sector in managing and reducing energy costs.
- We’re a member of the Energy Ombudsman’s Alternative Dispute Resolution scheme, so you have an independent route if anything ever goes wrong.
Not sure which applies to you?
We are keen to support you, so please do get in contact and tell us a little about your school or trust and we’ll review your current contracts, flag any savings, and explain your options in plain English.
