Decarbonisation Workshop Series

Working with you to achieve a low emission future for your business

Our Decarbonisation Workshop Series is the perfect place to start if your business or organisation is looking to embark on a low-emission journey.


Great South's Decarbonisation Workshop Series equips you with the knowledge, tools, and resources to support you and your business on the emission-reduction journey. You’ll come away with a customised emissions reduction plan and clear actions for your business.

Reducing emissions can help you reduce risk and cost exposure for your business, improve profitability, strengthen your brand value, and make your business more attractive to staff, customers, funders and insurers.
