LGIU Carbon Trading

As reported by the NHS SDU, the Carbon Trading Public Sector 2010-2011 scheme is being offered to NHS Trusts along with other public sector bodies to give organisations advance hands-on experience of the carbon trading process which will be introduced by the CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme (CRS EES) in April 2010.

The scheme will be managed and operated by the Local Government Information Unit (LGIU) on the same basis as their previous successful local government and public sector schemes.

This voluntary scheme will simulate the process of the carbon trading regime which will be the basis of the CRC EES.
