Boost your Business with an Energy Efficiency Grant

With climate change, rising resource costs, changing regulations & changing customer expectations; adopting an eco-friendlier approach is the best way forward for business. LEO Clare is here to support your business to become more sustainable with the Green for Business programme.

In this information session, Shane Mooney of Speco Services Environmental / Health & Safety Consultants will explain how adopting green practices not only protects the environment, but can also save you money. Discover how the programme can provide you with advice & technical support covering topics such as resource efficiency, understanding carbon footprint, implementing an environmental management system & steps to reduce costs and lower greenhouse gas emissions.

Shane will also be discussing how to apply for the Energy Efficiency Grant. The Energy Efficiency Grant supports the investment in technologies & equipment of enterprises following on from a Green for Business Report.
