Our public policy work in Wales

We work closely with the Welsh Assembly Government to help inform policy. We have recently input into the National Energy Efficiency and Savings Plan, Sustainable Buildings Planning Policy and the developing Climate Change Strategy. We provide briefings and information to Assembly Members and often provide written or oral evidence to the National Assembly for Wales Sustainability Committee. Our Head of the Energy Saving Trust Wales is a Climate Change Commissioner and we are a key member of the Zero and Low Carbon Hub and lead the Existing Homes Alliance Cymru - a key work stream of the hub.
