Entitled ‘Distributed Generation: From Cinderella to Centre Stage’ the report provides an overview of distributed generation in the UK and the barriers that it faces. Authored by the Carbon Connect division of Policy Connect, the study recommends a number of policy actions to assist distributed generation projects and thereby unlock the efficiency, emissions, security and risk reduction benefits that distributed generation offers.

You can access the report here.

As a result, busi­nesses must respond and adapt to the new low-carbon reality if they wish to remain competitive and prosper in coming years. Although the exact path to the low-carbon future remains unclear, companies can embrace five imperatives to guide them forward. These are: understanding the effects of carbon constraints and climate change; managing and mitigating the associated risks; minimizing their carbon footprint; protecting and maximizing margins; and realizing growth opportunities.

Recent experience in the oil and gas industry, however, proves otherwise. One company, for example, iden­tified a 43 percent reduction in emissions with a net present value of several billion U.S. dollars using a five-step process that makes finding reductions in emissions both practical and profitable.
