Renewable Energy Solutions (RES)

What Renewable Energy Solutions (RES) does

Renewable Energy Solutions (RES) is the trading name of BSG Utilities Limited, a UK private limited company headquartered in North Shields, Tyne and Wear, and a subsidiary of the Business Solutions Group (BSG). The company provides renewable energy and energy management services to UK businesses across nine named verticals, including property management, manufacturers, corporate clients, wholesale, transport, schools, councils, leisure, and healthcare. With approximately 25 employees and a sales-led go-to-market, RES positions itself as an integrated renewable energy intermediary rather than a pure broker or installer.

The company's core product portfolio spans energy strategy consulting, energy procurement brokerage, and physical installation of renewable technologies including Solar PV, Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems, Commercial LED Lighting, EV Charging Points, Smart Meters, and Energy Monitoring systems, complemented by Carbon Net-Zero Pathways advisory and Compliance/Exemptions services. Service delivery is supported by an in-house online consultation booking system, dedicated account management, and field-sales assessment teams for larger installations. Group structure includes sibling subsidiaries BSG Metering Limited and BSG Renewables Limited, separating metering subscription revenue from solar installation work.

RES earns revenue through multiple streams: capped commissions from utility providers (maximum £0.03/kWh consumed and/or £1/day of contract term) embedded in supply contract pricing, hourly-rate fees for supplementary professional services (OJEU procurement, risk management, contract tendering), one-time solar PV installation fees per quotation schedule, and a recurring metering subscription with an annual 15% price escalator. The company holds Utilities Intermediaries Association membership (UIA #1899) and ADR Signatory status, providing regulatory credibility in the UK B2B energy intermediary market, and serves customers exclusively within England under a single-country distribution model.
