In 2020 we hosted a series of webinars exploring topics on the importance of energy efficiency for businesses. If you missed them, don’t worry – here’s the recording of the fourth in the series.

We were also joined by Gavin Hodgson who is responsible for reducing energy consumption at Oxford Brookes University, who shared his experience with installing these measures at his premises.
