What’s next for WECC?WECC needs to evolve to consider the full
sustainability picture ; more than just direct emissions. Have been talking to lots of businesses and support
organisations through Green Capital Partnership Business Group
In process of redesigning WECC to meet new needs – the agenda has shifted since 2009
Working with Business West and talking to Bristol 2015 on how to make the scheme wider reaching
Aware we do not want to duplicate or reinvent the wheel
Plans still are in early stages - watch this space!
