BHESCo | Brighton & Hove Energy Services Co-op

BHESCo stands for Brighton and Hove Energy Services Co-operative. It is a not-for-profit social enterprise that works with homes and businesses in Sussex to make energy more financially and environmentally sustainable. As a not-for-profit business, any profits it does make are re-invested into new clean energy projects or used to help alleviate the crisis of fuel poverty in our community. BHESCo is a co-operative business - what does that mean? Being a co-operative means that BHESCo is jointly owned by its members, who share in the benefits and profits of the business. Its members are made up of its shareholders and its customers, who are invited to participate in the election of board members, the distribution of interest, and other business decisions during its Annual General Meeting. As a co-operative its members have an equal say in how the business is run, meaning members have one vote each at meetings, regardless of how many shares they own.
