LAEP Practitioners

Who are LAEP Practitioners?

We know that local authorities do not work in isolation, many work with organisations to support the development of Climate action plans, transport strategies, or Local Area Energy Plans. We refer to these organisations as LAEP Practitioners. This could include include consultancies, social enterprises, or community energy groups.
