Making carbon reduction easier
The Clean Growth Programme provides businesses with free specialist decarbonisation advice and individual assessments to identify where existing energy consumption can be reduced and energy efficiency improved.
In addition to the advice, businesses will gain access to Worcestershire’s Decarbonisation Portal, which allows businesses to measure their carbon footprint and generate clear, long-term decarbonisation plans.
To be eligible to apply, you need to be a Worcestershire SME in one of the following sectors:
- Manufacturing (including science and medical, food and drink)
- Information Technology (Cyber Security/digital)
- Business and Professional Services (restricted to business to business and non-brokerage services)
- Agri-technology
- Construction
- Transport and logistics
- Tourism
Why now?
Cutting your carbon footprint brings a host of benefits, not only to the environment, but to your organisation, increasing your efficiency, resilience, competitiveness, positive branding, and cost savings.
