Governments across the world are firming up green energy plans to meet crucial climate targets, however whether the scale and timeline of these goals are achievable remains to be seen.

Whilst there may be a long road ahead to reach net zero, one tool that we can all take advantage of in order to make immediate energy savings is energy efficiency.
As the findings of the Energy Institute’s annual Energy Barometer show, 'energy efficiency is indeed the biggest missed opportunity of the last decade. But it can also be the best investment of the next; at the core of a drive to refurbish our buildings and make them fit for the future. Government and the energy sector must put high energy performance buildings at the heart of the energy system of the future, to ‘build back better’ and set us firmly on the road to net zero.' (Dr Joanne Wade OBE FEI).
Having employees suitably qualified to make strategic decisions and set up robust company policies on energy management is essential, as is raising awareness in all individuals on how to reduce energy use at home and in the workplace.
