Preparing for the Carbon Reduction Commitment
Welcome to the home page for Preparing for the Carbon Reduction Commitment. Supported by Capital Ambition, part of London Councils, the London Energy Project (LEP) has produced this guide to give authorities a head start. The distribution of the guide to the wider public sector in England has been funded by the Regional Improvement and Efficiency Partnerships.
The guide sets out a route map for authorities to meet the requirements of the Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC) – the mandatory emissions trading scheme covering up to 6,000 organisations in both the public and private sectors. It is imperative that local authorities respond quickly to the new regulations, in order to avoid substantial fines.
We’ve worked with energy managers, finance officers and property professionals to develop this guide and a suite of practical tools designed specifically for local authorities. It provides practical templates, sample letters, presentations, a self-assessment checklist and templates for communications to schools.
The guide and tools are subject to copyright and distributed under licence. To obtain the Toolkit and Guide, you will be asked to complete a registration eform and accept the End User Licence Agreement, which you are strongly advised to read.
Within a couple of days you will receive an email, which grants access to the Guide and Toolkit download page. You should save the files to your hard drive as multiple downloads are not permitted.
It is important to note that the Guide and Toolkit are not supported documents, although updates and additional tools may be added as regulation and best practice evolve. London boroughs and London public sector organisations can contact the LEP for support with energy procurement, improvement and efficiency opportunities and general CRC support. We also send out occasional newsletters and run events and workshops.

PS:
recent developments and proposed develpments around our street appear to have trebled the flow of traffic. sit on a park bench outside the new poly clinic during the rush hour and count a 15 minute flow or non-flow of traffic. how does fit with the Carbon Reduction Commitment?
