A new business has been launched in Hull to help regional organisations approach Net Zero.

C3 Group is to provide a turnkey solution to clients who need help to decarbonise, with the promise of making the complex challenge simple.

Dan Haley, founder of award-winning city firm GW Power Safe, has joined forces with Ash Wray, a chartered engineer with his own business working in district heating and heat pumps across the 海角视频. Having met via LinkedIn where they had mutual connections and realised shared passions, they have told of their frustration at the wider building industry overcomplicating the process of carbon and energy reduction - and with energy prices rising, felt compelled to act.

Mr Haley, who led his eight year old firm to the Small Business of the Year accolade at the 2021 Hull Live Business Awards, said: “C3 Group’s founding principle is to make the complex challenge of decarbonisation simple - providing plain-English advice and guidance to clients who may find it daunting taking the first steps towards net zero.

“We have recognised the need for a specialist decarbonisation business that bridges the gap between traditional construction development and creating sustainable buildings. The business aims to provide a holistic service to clients with the goal of achieving long-term energy and cost savings and energy security for building owners.”

It is being aimed at public and private sector building owners, building contractors, and a range of industry and business premises managers.

GW, specialising in mechanical and electrical contracting, now employs more than 40 staff. Early last year it completed the move from a rented unit on Brighton Street Industrial Estate to its own base on Scott Street. C3 will operate from there initially.
