Carbon management
96% of FTSE 350 companies have board-level responsibility for their carbon emissions (Carbon Disclosure Project 2010). These businesses need an organisation-wide approach to energy usage and carbon management. Verco provides strategic carbon management advice, helping business leaders develop innovative and market leading strategies to meet their low or zero carbon aspirations.
We can make sure you create real commercial value and achieve maximum return on your investment, and we can advise you on the regulatory implications and technical feasibility of your energy efficiency and clean energy projects.
Our blue-chip clients in this field include Landrover, JCB, Aggregate Industries and SABMiller.

Whole house low carbon refurbishment
We investigated the potential for whole house low carbon refurbishment to deliver 80% carbon reductions in existing homes. The work involves identifying the whole package of carbon reduction measures that are required, the cost per house of installing all these measures, the key barriers to a whole house approach and the main policy instruments for delivery. Our research fed into the UK Government’s ‘Heat and Energy Saving Strategy’.
