  • sustainable policy development

    sustainable policy development

    The Carbon Free Group creates energy, environmental and sustainability strategies for both public and private sector clients that  incorporate:

    clear reasons

    Create a checklist for existing buildings and new buildings that details in hierarchical format a decision making framework of best value, best practice; no cost, low cost and investment cost solutions that lead to reduced energy and heat consumption, reduced running cost and reduced your impact on the environment.

    the strategy

    Is written in such a way that improvements and amendments primarily would take place in appendixes as opposed to the main policy. This will then allow for new technologies, procedures and rules to be amended with greater ease as the main policy would then primarily remain intact.

    Is concise and short whenever possible to increase accessibility.

    Leads its readers towards best practice and best value solutions.

    We offer renewable energy and sustainability options studies and we also can be engaged to critique existing design guides, policies or standards to incorporate best practice solutions.
