ENERGY
As the EU aim for 20% reduction in energy and emissions with 20% use of renewable by 2020, green buildings and future sustainable urban environments are high on the agenda.
Energy efficiency also leads to reduced running costs for organisations. With the reduction in capital expenditure over the forthcoming period, cost control / reduction and operational efficiency will be a major focus for clients and organisations.
Our goal is to assist client organisations to understand the current challenges and legislation and to orientate their organisations and capital infrastructure into a new era of energy efficient low carbon facilities.
We offer the following energy related consultancy services:

New EU Proposals on Renewable Energy, Energy Effciency and Energy Performance of Buildings
In November 2008, the European Commision unveiled a package of proposals in the field of energy security and energy efficiency. The proposals are in context of the EU's commitments and the so-called '20-20-20' goals:
New legislation therefore places an increased emphasis on energy efficiency, and thus the Commission is proposing new measures to reinforce the existing EU Directive on the Energy Performance of Buildings (2002/91/EC), which is currently being implemented and which requires certificates of the energy performance of buildings.

• To have a 20% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2020.
• To have a 20% share of renewables in final energy consumption by 2020.
• To have a 20% saving in future energy demand by 2020.
