Towards a Low Carbon Future – Opportunities for BusinessAJCBI
This document summarizes a presentation given by the Carbon Trust about opportunities for businesses in moving to a low carbon future. The Carbon Trust was established by the UK government to accelerate the transition to a low carbon economy. It helps businesses and the public sector cut carbon emissions now through advice and financing, and cut future emissions by developing new technologies. Significant carbon savings and cost savings have already been achieved. Moving forward requires support for low carbon innovation, developing opportunities like offshore wind, and overcoming barriers to deployment of new technologies. The transition presents both risks and opportunities for companies to gain value by preparing for a low carbon economy.
This document discusses opportunities for collaboration between academia and businesses. It provides examples of university spin-outs that commercialized new technologies, as well as a group called Imperial Innovations that invests in university spin-outs. The document also discusses university-based incubators for early-stage businesses, programs for problem solving and consultancy to help small businesses, and Knowledge Transfer Partnerships between businesses and academics. Collaborative R&D projects between universities and SMEs are also mentioned. One such project between Green Structures and the University of Sheffield developed thermal energy storage technologies.
This document discusses the design and environmental performance of the iCon building in Daventry. It was designed to have an extremely low carbon footprint of 12.2kgCO2/m2 per year, well below typical office buildings. This was achieved through passive ventilation, super insulation, an exhaust air heat pump for heat recovery, and daylight-linked lighting controls. The building is monitored to learn from its performance. The document argues that exemplar green buildings can reduce carbon emissions cost-effectively, and dispels myths that low-carbon designs are too expensive.

The document discusses jobs and skills in renewable energy and energy efficiency in Belgium. It finds that renewable energy currently supports around 7,000 jobs in Belgium, though total jobs across related industries are uncertain. Energy efficiency also supports jobs but figures are lacking. The document estimates renewable energy jobs could grow by 25,000-75,000 by 2020. It finds both new and existing occupations in these sectors, but that skills shortages exist due to new technologies and lack of trained workers. The document proposes using tools like competency models and expanding education programs to develop needed green skills. Finally, it discusses opportunities for employers and job seekers in these areas at an upcoming Energy Forum event.
