Save energy

North East businesses can reduce energy use and save money with support from the Carbon Trust and Midas.

It’s not just climate change that should make businesses reduce the amount of energy they use. Better energy efficiency makes good commercial sense, too. If you use less energy, you can reduce costs. But how do you review the way you use energy, and make improvements?
