In this edition of The Bursarcast Podcast, we begin with a concise round-up of the latest ISBA news and bulletin headlines — including sector updates, new resources, and key policy developments for independent schools.
Then we turn to the main feature, where we’re joined by Paul Gregory, Group Commercial Director at HSEnergy Group, to explore how schools can take practical steps toward energy independence.
Paul explains how HSEnergy is helping schools address rising energy costs and sustainability targets through solar generation, AI-powered battery storage, and fully funded energy solutions that require no upfront investment. He shares real examples from education projects across the UK, showing how intelligent energy management can reduce reliance on the grid, lower costs, and strengthen resilience — while allowing schools to lead the way in sustainable innovation.
