London Green500

The London Green500 is London mayor Boris Johnson’s carbon mentoring programme, with the stated aim of ensuring London's leading organisations reduce carbon emissions in the capital by 60% by 2025.
The London Green500 is led by a consortium on behalf of the London Development Agency. AEA Technology is the lead contractor, with Mouchel, National Energy Foundation, Futerra and Future Considerations.
What is Green500?
The aim of Green500 is to enlist some of London's largest organisations and mentor them through their carbon reduction commitments.
Green500 is one of a number of London Development Agency (LDA) London Development Agency initiatives, including Better Buildings Partnership, which aim to reduce London's CO<sub>2</sub> emissions.
Members of Green500 receive an initial assessment of their London specific carbon footprint from an expert Green500 Carbon Mentor. Members are then presented with a tailored Action Plan outlining how they can reduce their carbon emissions. The individual Action Plans not only aim to reduce the member's carbon footprint, but also estimates financial savings for energy, waste, water and transport. The Green500 Action Plan also gives information on expected payback periods for each change, if implemented successfully.
