Companies in London are being offered a new toolkit from the Better Buildings Partnership to make their office sites greener, reports energy saving trust.
The initiative has been launched as a means to measure CO2 output generated from construction as well as a system through which energy consumption can be monitored.
It is estimated that more than one-third of London's total carbon emissions are created through office buildings.
The city's mayor, Boris Johnson, said that the new toolkit can also help enterprises reduce their total energy costs.
Martin Powell, project delivery director at the London Development Agency said: "Businesses need to understand how their buildings use energy before they can work out how to cut their carbon pollution.
"The Better Buildings Partnership's new toolkit will help them do that and will help move the commercial property sector toward an agreed set of standards and measurements."
