Green business research
The Go Green Europe partnership has undertaken research into ways businesses have successfully reduced their energy use and carbon footprint.
As part of this we have reviewed small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that have undertaken energy saving measures, or support projects which help businesses to do this.
Research has been undertaken in four different Member States through short summary reports and briefings of study visits. These are available below.
