COMPANIES across Kirklees can now benefit from online support to cut costs, waste and carbon emissions.
Business support group CO2Sense Yorkshire has launched a series of free networks and is encouraging as many people as possible to sign up and become members.
Professionals can join any of more than 20 networks set up to share knowledge and best practice in a number of specialist areas.
The public networks cover sectors such as carbon capture and storage, renewable energy, food and drink, plastics and wood fuel.
Private networks have also been established for local authority waste management, resource efficiency in the NHS and members of the Green Business Support Organisation.
The interactive network forums compliment CO2Sense’s website by allowing people to take part in online discussions and find solutions to common industry problems.
They also meet CO2Sense’s objectives of lowering the region’s carbon footprint and helping businesses to reduce costs and encourage growth.
Jeanine Willoughby, project executive for CO2Sense Yorkshire, said: “The networks have been launched to give technical advice and offer examples of best practice. And to give members peace of mind, they have support at just the click of a button.
“Learning from others is often the best way to solve problems and by creating this online doorway to other professionals within specific industries, I am confident both individuals and businesses will benefit from this resource.”
