Strategy and advice

Building your sustainability credentials

Businesses that demonstrate their commitment to reducing the environmental impact of their manufacturing operations, buildings and estate, transport fleets and supply chain are more likely to win and retain customers. Energy Saving Trust are experts when it comes to communicating with consumers about energy and water efficiency.

We support businesses that want to take the next steps towards building a sustainable future – as well as highlight their organisation’s activities, achievements and ambitions. We can support you with formulating and developing a short, medium or long-term energy and sustainability plan for your business if you’re at the start of your journey, or we can simply help you effectively communicate what you’ve done so far.

Climate emergency planning

Many local authorities have made a commitment to take urgent action to cut carbon emissions and help mitigate the effects and impacts of climate change for residents, communities, businesses and stakeholders.

Some councils have a defined aspiration and a clear idea of their goals to work towards net zero carbon emissions while others are just beginning their journey, but for many local authorities, the development of a credible and deliverable carbon reduction programme will be both challenging and complex. What they all have in common is the ambition to help mitigate the effects and impacts of climate change for residents, communities, businesses and stakeholders.

Our approach involves developing a bespoke climate emergency local energy plan that takes an integrated and long-term approach to understanding, prioritising and tackling all aspects of potential decarbonisation in the region.
