History
JUDGEnergy was launched by trained lawyer and entrepreneur Sema Judge in honour of her father, Mansoor Judge, who had planned to open a wind farm in China before his death in 2006.
Hammersmith & Fulham News reporter Caroline Butcher described the inspiration behind Ms. Judge’s green store as “a daughter’s wish to make sure her father’s dream of building a better future did not go to waste”. Since 2008, Ms. Judge has been running JUDGEnergy online.
Expansion
The company’s first shop opened up in June 2010 in Shepherds Bush, where all of their products are available to the public.
Presently, JUDGEnergy is working in areas such as China, South America, Africa and the Middle East, using technologies that harness renewable energy sources, including wind, solar and water, towards a more sustainable future for all.
Recent activity
JUDGEnergy is currently involved in various sustainable initiatives such as the UNEP Plant for the Planet: Billion Tree Campaign, and has pledged to plant 10 trees. The billions of trees planted by the collective efforts of the participants will contribute to biodiversity across the planet.
The company has also planted one tree with WCAFI (World Clean Air Forest Initiative), a non-profit organisation with a goal to clean the air by fighting climate change, deforestation and pollution worldwide.
For customer service deliveries, JUDGEnergy uses ByBox – a company that reduces peoples’ carbon footprint when delivering products by forwarding purchased products to a network of 400 collection points around the UK, rather than individual homes.
The company was featured at Greenfest in Hammersmith, an annual festival for environmental and community groups, and the Green Fair at Portsmouth.

Timber Home Living & Log Home Living Editor, Mike McCarthy described the Rainwater HOG as a “smart and easy choice for residential use”.
