Innovation is central to successful business – the need to move forward demands new ideas and approaches, as demonstrated by Climate Savers companies in this collection of case studies.

Innovations developed include creative ideas in renewable energy generation, management initiatives designed to motivate and fully involve staff, adaptation of business models and cutting back travel through the use of leading edge telepresence solutions. All in all, Climate Savers companies have driven forward the emission-reduction agenda with vigour and determination.
