Greater Manchester’s grand ambitions to meet carbon neutrality 12 years ahead of the national target are well documented and the route to achieving those goals are outlined in the 5 year Environmental Plan.
According to a report produced by Mr Mateusz Ziemba in May 2020 most of the carbon emitted in Greater Manchester comes from the energy consumption across three sectors: transport, commercial and domestic and in order to achieve carbon neutral success by 2038 considerable emissions reductions must be achieved across all three.
In January 2021, the Green Tech Conference is going to look at how this can be achieved, including a deeper delve into retrofit and its role in the race for zero.
Broken into three distinct parts the conference will focus on the regions current policy landscape, the challenges and opportunities that this presents and the positive actions and changes that must be taken to achieve success. This event will form part of a series of ongoing activity throughout 2021 in the run up to COP 26.
