We’re thrilled to announce the appointment of global ESG advisory firm, Sodali & Co, as we look to develop a market-leading ESG policy and the goal of having our first sustainability report by FY2025.

Sodali & Co holds over 50 years of experience in blue chip ESG and will support Root-Power to develop a successful, holistic approach that will enable the creation of a mature ESG policy. This will be supported by high-quality data and reporting structures aligned with our wider mission and values.

The advisory firm will also be advising us on our sustainability framework, setting a clear direction for our team to follow. The framework will bring together core topics and priorities that have a material impact on our operations.

Neil Brooks, Managing Director at Root-Power said: “We are delighted to have appointed Sodali & Co to help Root-Power develop a market-leading ESG strategy.

“Sodali & Co’s extensive experience developing ESG policy for other leading UK energy companies, and their specialist team’s significant depth of experience engaging with key ESG stakeholders will allow us to better demonstrate and review our ESG credentials.

“With increasing stakeholder attention on ESG concerns, it is crucial Root-Power invests in appointing the right team to improve the quality of our ESG matters at such a critical time in our mission to contribute to a green, more sustainable future for the UK’s energy landscape.”

Sodali & Co has experience working with organisations such as Engie, Philips, Iberdrola and Rio Tinto.
