Description

So Energy was created in 2015 because we knew energy suppliers could be better. Since then, we've grown rapidly but sustainably, with 300,000+ customers and over 300 So Energists. But, we're not done.

We're on the road to a million customers by the end of 2026 and, thanks to our recent merger with ESB Energy, we're well on the way.

Clear
Honest
Ambitious
Inquisitive
Caring
Sustainable
