NEW ENIGIN TRAINING PROGRAMME

THIS week Enigin Pic started their new, Mindshare training course.

Delegates from around the globe attended the Enigin Distributor training and started on a week long course to help them set-up their own energy saving business in their own territories.

At the most exciting time to start an energy saving business, as we count down to the Copenhagen Climate-Change summit in December, with many governments actively promoting energy saving and providing help and financial support for end users, to energy saving businesses and for energy saving products.

These new Enigin Distributors (above) will benefit from the awareness created by the Copenhagen Summit as they will help corporations, organisations and businesses in their own lands to start to save energy, save money and help save the planet.

This view is not just held by myself but many others - for instance here is a quote from businesgreen.com - please read James Murray's full article but notice this portion:

Meanwhile, arguably the most compelling stimulus for greener business models has quietly re-emerged with the realisation that oil prices are on the rise again. They may not be anywhere near the record highs of last year, but with the first green shoots of recovery slowly emerging economists are deeply concerned that oil supplies will not be able to keep track with the rising global demand that will come with any recovery.

Add in the fact that investment in carbon capture and renewable energy, coupled with expansion of carbon cap-and-trade schemes, will inevitably drive up long term energy prices and it becomes clear that energy efficiency initiatives still make a great deal sense regardless of the economic climate.

All of this presents a huge opportunity for green businesses - and an enormous headache for those firms yet to embrace more sustainable practices.

On a purely tactical level, the public awareness campaigns being orchestrated by governments and NGOs offer a one off opportunity for those businesses offering green products and services to push their message to a ready primed audience.

But on a broader level the next six months offer a great opportunity for green businesses to really open up a gap on their carbon-intensive rivals.

Regardless of how the US climate change bill goes in tomorrow's vote and regardless of how the Copenhagen talks eventually resolve themselves, the fact is that more environmental legislation is on the way, along with more low carbon incentives, higher energy bills, and ever increasing investment in low carbon infrastructure and technologies.

Those firms that seize on the opportunity presented by this six month long "perfect storm" and act now to prepare for the post-Copenhagen settlement will be the same firms that are rewarded with higher profit margins and lower risk profiles over the next decade.

Like I say, the time for action stations.
