Energy Efficiency & Environmental Behaviour

We help take practical action to tackle climate change – and we recognise that by doing so we can also reduce fuel poverty and help business be more efficient. Our Environmental Business Services team provides training and advice to organisations on environmental business issues – cutting carbon and saving money.

Out in the community, we help to change behaviours and limit personal environmental impacts. The work we undertake results in people behaving in ways which are healthier, more community minded and more respectful of the environment. We encourage walking and cycling, help improve the energy efficiency of homes and encourage the use of renewable energy technologies. Our team of green doctors visit homes and install energy saving measures to reduce their carbon footprint and reduce their fuel bills.

Our vision of creating a sustainable society means that often our work programmes, such as Team Green, focus on the environment and skills for a green economy.
