Reducing carbon emissions can help your business to:
- reduce energy costs
- improve operating efficiencies
- increase positive public perception and reputation
We can support local businesses and organisations to reduce carbon emissions through funding from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund. This funding for decarbonisation allows us to:
- provide a year’s access to the decarbonisation platform, Climate Essentials
- run a match-funded grant scheme for between £500 and £5,000
The Carbon Trust also provides further information on decarbonisation and improving the natural environment, while Defra provides a small business user guide.
The UK Business Climate Hub is a shared endeavour, developed with the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ), the SME Climate Hub and the UK’s main business organisations, energy networks, high street banks and professional bodies.
