Details London First in conjunction with BIFM, is delighted to invite you to this free event to discuss the proposals under the Carbon Reduction Commitment. The CRC is a key component of the UK Government?s Climate Change Bill, which requires organisations with an annual energy consumption of around 6,000MWh/yr or ?500k annual spend, to report their energy related carbon emissions. Organisations within the CRC scheme will have to purchase allowances to cover their emissions, set initially at ?12 per tonne of CO2, with all payments recycled among participating organisations according to their place in a performance league table. The CRC will go live in 2010.

We have a great line-up of companies who will share best practice on how to achieve cost-effective carbon savings which will deliver environmental and financial benefits. Our hosts CB Richard Ellis will summarise what the Carbon Reduction Commitment means to you and your company. UBS will discuss the programmes it has implemented to achieve carbon savings. IBM will give an insight into its innovative approach to portfolio management and the way it operates with third party service providers. This allows IBM to glean far more information on aspects of its portfolio?s performance ? including sustainability issues.
