Our expertise
We provide a wide range of sustainability services to meet your needs
Policy
Our team has been involved in a range of measures to transform the market to reduce carbon emissions, including:
- Information (we supported development of energy labels on appliances from 1992 onwards)
- Incentives (our team has managed grant programmes for Government)
- Regulation (our team has supported implementation and operation of minimum standards for appliances and power stations)
Without information there is no market for efficiency or carbon. Once there is information the market can be incentivised by taxes or rebates or grants. And the worst in the market can be removed by minimum standards. This combination of measures is known as Market Transformation

- For government (whom our team supported on a strategy, tax and planning policy for Combined Heat and Power, including development of the CHPQA programme),
