Energy and climate change response
Our researchers work with government, business and the wider community to improve the sustainability of the energy sector and design effective responses to climate change.
Some of the services we offer include:
Energy and climate change foresight - we use visioning, scenarios and advanced foresight methods to help organisations explore probable, possible and desirable energy and climate change futures
Sustainability evaluation - we can assess the economic, environmental and social sustainability of energy technologies and climate change responses to inform policy and action. We use a variety of tools and frameworks to guide evaluation, including integrated resource planning and sustainability indicators.
Carbon management services - we use a comprehensive carbon management framework to assist organisations to estimate, avoid, reduce and offset their greenhouse gas emissions
Climate change communication - we undertake research, writing, public speaking and media work in relation to communication of energy and climate change issues
Stakeholder and community engagement - we provide a range of stakeholder and community engagement services, including surveys, interviews, workshops, focus groups and innovative approaches such as citizens' juries
Policy development and evaluation - we have extensive experience in the evaluation of energy and greenhouse policy initiatives and design of alternative policies to promote sustainability
Research and analysis - we offer various research and analysis services, including literature review, quantitative and qualitative social research and statistical analysis
Social justice in energy and carbon markets - we have specific expertise in consumer advocacy and analysis of social justice issues in energy and carbon markets.
Training and education - we develop training courses and materials on energy efficiency improvement, sustainable building practices and other aspects of sustainable energy and climate change response.Download/view our Energy and Climate Change capability statement (PDF, 300KB)
