Low Carbon and Environmental Technologies and Services Sector Strategy Consultation

Closes 24th March 2010

The Energy and Environmental Technologies sector, recently renamed by BIS to the Low Carbon Goods and Services Sector is one of the region’s priority sectors.

The objective of the consultation exercise is to consult the public sector and industry in the region on the proposed sector strategy for the Low Carbon and Environmental Goods and Services sector. The responses from the consultation exercise will influence the content of the final strategy document.

We welcome all responses and please do respond if you support the strategy and have no further comments to make. However, we would particularly welcome comments on the following points:

  1. Do you agree with the definition of the sector (Section 2.1)?  Are there any technologies or services we should be including which are not covered by the strategy?
  2. Do you agree with the key barriers to development (Table 8)?  Are there any other market failures we should consider?
  3. Do you agree with the Vision, aims, strategic objectives (Section 6)? If not, what would you suggest as alternatives?
  4. Do you agree with the Strategic Framework and sub-sector priorities within the framework (Figure 5)?  If not do you have evidence to support different priorities?
  5. Do you agree with the suggested new actions?  Are there any other activities we should consider for inclusion in the action plan and why?

Responses should be made by email to consultations@nwda.co.uk.

Helen Seagrave, Sector Development Manager - Energy and Environmental Technologies is the principal contact for any enquiries about the consultation.
