The Carbon Trust is launching an energy efficiency programme START2ACT aimed at SME (Small & Medium-sized Enterprises) with an initial baseline survey on energy efficiency at SMEs in the UK.

START2ACT is a free service offering energy efficiency training, online energy saving advice and breakfast events to assist young SMEs and start-ups with energy reduction. The programme is funded by the European Commission Horizon 2020 programme, and covers seven countries in Eastern Europe (Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Slovakia) as well as the UK.

As a starting point, there is an initial survey, which  will take about 10-15 minutes to complete and it will enter you into a prize draw to win the following great prizes: Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, Kindle Oasis, Sony Smartwatch 3, SWR50 Jabra Move wireless headphones.
