Green Growth Awards

Devon & Oxford’s ChargeWorks - FINALIST FOR NEW GREEN GROWTH AWARDS

ChargeWorks has made it to the final of awards after impressing judges for their approach to driving growth through sustainability.

ChargeWorks has been selected as a finalist for the first-ever ‘Green Growth Awards’, a new national competition recognising small businesses leading the way in embracing sustainability to innovate and drive business growth.

Inaugural Green Growth Awards

Launched by Small Business Britain, in partnership with BT, the inaugural Green Growth Awards will award two sustainability grants of £5000 to two small businesses that have successfully boosted their bottom line by implementing sustainable initiatives. The grants will help provide additional funding for businesses to invest further in this area.

ChargeWorks has made it to the final round of the awards after impressing judges with their commitment to green growth. This includes;

  • Offering independent, bespoke and expert-led 1-2-1 energy consultations to individual consumers as an employee benefit.
  • Providing advice on solar PV, electric vehicles, heat pumps and home energy efficiency, empowering individuals to make informed decisions that directly reduce their carbon footprints.
  • Assisting businesses in addressing their Scope 3 emissions by empowering employees to make sustainable choices at home, fostering a culture of sustainability and directly impacting corporate carbon footprints.

Thrilled to be shortlisted

On being named as a finalist, Tom Cole who founded ChargeWorks in 2020, said: 

“We are thrilled to be finalists for the Green Growth Awards. This recognition validates our commitment to empowering individuals and businesses to make informed decisions about sustainable energy. At ChargeWorks, we believe that expert advice should be accessible to everyone, enabling them to reduce their carbon footprint and save money while contributing to a greener future. This award will further fuel our mission to drive meaningful change through innovative and sustainable solutions.”

Recognising outstanding small businesses

“The Green Growth Awards recognise the outstanding small businesses that are not only leading the way in sustainability but are also using it to fuel innovation and growth,” says Michelle Ovens CBE, Founder of Small Business Britain.

“These businesses are proving that greener practices not only benefit the planet but also create real business success—whether through cost savings, waste reduction, or deeper customer engagement. Their passion and commitment are making a real impact on their communities and the economy.”

The nation’s 5.5m small businesses are estimated to represent half of the UK’s business emissions and the Green Growth Awards has been launched as part of Small Business Britain’s ongoing partnership with BT to empower UK small businesses to better understand their environmental impact and embrace more sustainable practices and growth opportunities.

“The Green Growth Awards shine a spotlight on the small businesses that are not only driving sustainability but also setting the standard for innovation and growth,” said Chris Sims, Chief Commercial Officer, UK Business, at BT.

“It’s truly inspiring to see how these businesses are leveraging sustainable practices to achieve real business success and create positive change in their communities. We’re really proud to support this initiative.”

BT is also a member of the Willow Review Steering Board; a new independent review aiming to underline the financial case for sustainability for small businesses, which has been spearheaded by Small Business Britain and is backed by the UK Government.

The winners of the Green Growth Awards will be announced at a special event at BT’s Headquarters in London on 11 March 2025.
