Improving energy efficiency opens up the opportunity to make sports operations more sustainable and makes perfect business sense; it saves money, enhances corporate reputation and helps everyone in the fight against climate change. But how can you get started? What is best practice in measuring the energy performance of your operations and how can you select which energy systems should be upgraded? What is key when looking at renewable energy use? What is else could a stadium do to minimise energy consumption – and how can staff and visitors be a part of this effort?
Focusing on understanding and acting on the energy systems and processes that can be optimised and best practice in changing staff and visitors’ behaviour – both important elements when trying to decarbonise sport operations.
Taking place Wednesday 21st February at 3-4PM GMT.
Discussion points
• Identifying the energy systems that can benefit from optimisation
• How can staff and visitors support these efforts?
