Mayor sets out measures to deliver low carbon, lower cost energy for London
The Mayor of London Boris Johnson has today (Wednesday 14 October 2009) detailed steps to boost locally generated energy to cut carbon emissions, create green collar jobs and save money off fuel bills.
To create an energy revolution, the Mayor has detailed a package of initiatives, including 'A Decentralised Energy Centre of Excellence' within the LDA and The London Heat Map project, developed in partnership with the London Development Agency, London First and London Councils. These are initiatives are designed to attract investors whilst helping developers and borough councils to develop more local decentralised energy schemes, which can be complex to get off the starting blocks.
The Mayor kick-started this call to arms by announcing nineteen boroughs set to be the first to benefit from bespoke London Development Agency and London4 Councils support to help take forward these greener, local energy schemes.
