It provides industry-specific guidance and advice on sustainability and how to reduce the energy used in commercial kitchens.

Estimates suggest that the British catering industry uses over 21.6 GWh a year and that energy can be a kitchen’s highest cost after labour.

The guide covers new and existing kitchens.
