GHG Emissions Embodied in Trade
June, 2012
With no globally comprehensive agreement until 2020, there is a serious concern that the environmental effectiveness of climate policy in developed countries will be compromised.
Pathways for Energy Storage in the UK
April, 2012
The report takes an integrated approach to examining the drivers and barriers to the development and deployment of different forms of energy storage in the UK.
Building Confidence
April, 2012
This paper provides an analysis of thermal performance data for new build and retrofitted homes. It looks at factors which determine the performance gap and enables stakeholders to consider targeted processes which can improve performace, helping the industry to move towards minimising the performance gap.

March, 2012
This report examines the optimisation of the commercial potential of biorefineries by maximising the value, volume, and range of materials that can be produced from feedstocks.
The Economics of Low Carbon Cities: A Mini Stern Review for the Leeds City Region
January, 2012
The groundbreaking ‘Mini Stern’ report provides a framework for analysing energy performance data at city level. The report shows that UK cities could cut billions of pounds from their energy bills by exploiting commercially attractive opportunities in energy and carbon management.
Making the Change: The Transition to Low Carbon Supply Chains
December, 2011
This report identifies drivers and barriers in the transition towards low carbon supply chains from a business perspective.
The Retrofit Challenge: Delivering Low Carbon Buildings
November, 2011
This report examines the current status and future potential of building retrofit for energy performance and carbon saving in the UK. A brief review of current policy and building stock is followed by discussion of ways forward.
Supply Chain Environmental Analysis: A New System for Delivering a Low Carbon Supply Chain
November, 2011
We establish the need for a state-of-the-art Supply Chain Environmental Analysis Tool (SCEnAT) for the management and accounting of carbon emissions across product supply chains.
Technology Innovation for Energy Intensive Industry in the United Kingdom
July, 2011
We take first-hand evidence from industry to assess the innovative low carbon technology solutions needed for the UK’s key energy intensive sectors. Potential technology options, barriers to low carbon investment and the need for policy support and technical co-operation have been examined sector by sector.

The Economics of Low Carbon, Climate Resilient Cities - Lima-Callao, Peru
The Lima-Callao area has a population of 9 million andan economy worth US$66 billion in 2014. The preliminary results of our research indicate that the total energy bill for the city was US$4.7 billion and that the bill for waste and water was US$50 billion - meaning that 8% of everything earned in the local economy was spent on energy, water and waste.
The Centre for Low Carbon Futures (CLCF) is a collaborative research centre that focuses on the evidence base and demonstration of low carbon innovations, formed by the Universities of Birmingham, Hull, Leeds, Sheffield and York.
