About The Role About us… Ecotricity is the greenest energy company in Britain.
In fact, when we started back in 1995, we were the first green electricity company in the world.
Our mission was and remains to change the way energy is made and used – after introducing green electricity to the world, we introduced green gas to Britain in 2010 too.
Our model is unique: we use our customers' energy bills to fund the building of new sources of green energy.
We like to refer to this as turning 'bills into mills' – energy bills into energy mills, whether that's wind, sun, sea or gasmills.
We've built over seventy wind and sun parks across Britain, we're planning to build Britain's first ever Green Gasmills, and through Britwind, our small wind company, we design, build and deliver small wind turbines to landowners and businesses throughout Britain and the world!
We don't just focus on energy though – we built and run the Electric Highway, Britain's leading network of electric car charge points, we helped Forest Green Rovers become the greenest football club in the world, and launched Britain's greenest mobile phone service, Ecotalk.

Ecotricity is Britain's greenest energy company.
When we started back in 1995, we were the first company in the world to provide a new kind of electricity - the green kind.
Our mission was, and remains, to change the way energy is made and used in Britain - by replacing fossil fuels with clean, renewable energy.
We don't just supply green energy, we use the money from our customers' bills to make it ourselves too - we build windmills, sun parks and green gasmills in Britain.
We call this turning 'bills into mills'.
Some of our biggest achievements to date include building Britain's first megawatt windmill and the country's first grid-scale sun park, as well as building our first green gasmill, generating 100% green gas from a source that we will never run out of - grass.
We don't just focus on energy though- we built the Electric Highway, Britain's leading network of electric vehicle charging points; we helped Forest Green Rovers become the greenest football club in the world; and we launched Britain's greenest mobile phone service, Ecotalk, where they use the money from their customers' bills to protect and regenerate Britain's lost rainforests.
