CSE achieved remarkable milestones, including £25 million in client savings, a 144% increase in efficiency measures installed, and the successful launch of Retrofit West in 2023, which has been pivotal for coordinated retrofits in the region (source: cse.org.uk). Additionally, trustee changes in 2024 saw the appointment of new members, enhancing the governance of the organization (source: charitycommission.gov.uk). CSE has not documented any acquisitions or external funding rounds in the recent years, focusing instead on its core mission and community impact.

CSE offers a variety of roles across different departments, including energy advice, casework, research, policy advocacy, community training, and education programs. As of the latest charity data, the organization employs approximately 120 individuals and has 18 volunteers supporting its operations (source: charitycommission.gov.uk).
