What is the Energy Efficiency Obligation Scheme?

The Energy Efficiency Obligation Scheme (EEOS) is a government initiative designed to improve energy efficiency and reduce energy consumption. Under this scheme, energy suppliers and distributors, known as Obligated Parties, are required to implement energy-saving measures to meet specific targets. These measures help lower energy bills, reduce carbon footprints, and promote sustainable energy use for customers. Calor are an obligated party under the scheme.
