Energy & Carbon Skill-Building Workshops
Give your team the confidence and know-how to take control of energy and carbon. These sessions are designed to unlock quick operational savings, reduce reliance on consultants, and build capability that lasts.
Each workshop is led by an experienced practitioner, not a trainer reading slides. You’ll get a focused lecture, plenty of time for questions, and a practical action plan your team can put into practice the next day.
From DIY carbon audits to energy management in complex buildings, the six core workshops cover the essential skills every organisation needs to deliver on net zero.

No jargon, no overwhelm, just practical skills you can use straight away.
