These two-hour Briefings aim to provide up-to-date information
to members on how to manage and reduce carbon (and energy)
use. A QPA guide commissioned from ESD will also be launched
at the Briefings. In addition to this resource, we will
update members on policy developments relating to carbon
emissions and the availability of funding to support members
- for example through the Carbon Trust and Safed aggregates
programmes. Case histories from members will also be examined
and there will be the opportunity to hear customer/client
perspectives on carbon reduction.
