Accelerating towards net zero – decarbonising London’s public sector

Join us for this one-hour webinar as we explore the work of the innovative Accelerators for public sector workplaces and local energy. See how your organisation could benefit from the support they offer, their success stories and how you can get involved.

You will hear from those leading the programmes as well as the beneficiaries of their support, including the challenges they faced and how the Retrofit Accelerators supported them to achieve their decarbonisation goals.

Local Energy Accelerator

Local Energy Accelerator (LEA) is a £6m programme providing expertise and support to public and private sector organisations to develop clean and locally generated energy projects.

Projects include district energy networks that use renewable heat sources (e.g., river water), and energy technologies such as heat pumps, solar panels, batteries and smart electric vehicle charging to transform the way London generates, supplies and uses clean local energy in buildings and transport. LEA focuses on helping projects that are in their final stages and would benefit from support to deliver carbon savings.
