Research and evaluation

Carbon Descent can undertake research projects in the areas of carbon emissions, sustainable energy demand and supply (including renewables and CHP), alternative fuels, sustainable transport and energy performance in the built environment. We welcome unique requests and can compile existing data, undertake desk-based research, online or phone surveys, model findings and present results.

Previous commissions have included the London Carbon Scenarios report for the GLA and the GreenBlue, a feasibility study on alternative fuels for leisure boats.
