What we offer

Carbon Reduction Management

Climate change is caused by the rising level of greenhouse gas emissions resulting mainly from fossil fuel combustion and other industrial activities.
Since carbon dioxide is the major greenhouse gas, “carbon” has become synonymous with all greenhouse gases.

HES provides expertise supporting the development of organisation- wide carbon management strategies, helping businesses to manage their carbon liabilities, turning them into financial, environmental and social assets, supporting the transition to a low carbon economy.

Sustainability Planning

Sustainability planning links all levels of society:

  • National and local government
  • Communities
  • Businesses
  • Individuals

HES helps all levels to deliver these sustainable energy solutions using stakeholder consultation to guide the implementation of strategies that meet the all stakeholder needs.
Our expertise in energy and carbon reduction extends across the sustainable energy spectrum:

  • Energy efficiency
  • Solar – both thermal and PV
  • Wind
  • Small Hydro
  • Combined Heat and Power (CHP)

Building Sustainability

HES has experience of sustainable built environment projects.  Our skills range from strategy, planning and finance to technical design, engineering, procurement and project management.

The recent shift in national and regional energy strategy is an exciting challenge and opportunity.
Our clients will be able to unlock the benefits arising from these changes through innovative technical solutions,
gearing from public funding, the creation of partnerships with private sector investors and utilities, and risk mitigation by implementing sustainable energy measures in line with future legislation.

Policy Strategy and Development

HES works with organisations to help shape and build policy and strategy.  HES works on climate change and sustainable energy policy development in the UK, and its regions.
