Environment & Waste

Councils are increasingly turning to the private sector for Waste, Environmental Services, Low Carbon and Renewable Energy projects

Local Authorities are now obliged to measure and reduce CO2 emissions per capita. To achieve this, Councils are creating Energy Service Companies and investing in green energy infrastructure. This is a very new market and the competitor landscape is changing daily.

The country is producing more waste but Council budgets are shrinking

The efficient management of Waste is an urgent priority for Local Authorities in a climate of increasing volumes, budget cuts and environmental constraints. Creative solutions from the private sector are sought and Porge’s insight can help suppliers target the Councils who need the most help.
