Later in the evening, Peter Bishop, Group Director of Design, Development and Environment at the LDA announced that due to the continued success of the scheme, it is set to be expanded later in 2010 to include smaller businesses and organisations and will be delivered by the Carbon Trust. He went on to say that, over the next three years, the expanded scheme will aim to help at least 1,500 London organisations to save up to 1,000,000 tonnes of CO2 and save £100,000,000 in energy costs over the lifetime of the projects.
