What is green energy consulting? Green energy is defined as energy that comes from natural sources like sunlight, wind, rain, tides, plants, algae, and geothermal heat. These energy resources are renewable, meaning they are naturally replenished. Green energy consulting is sometimes referred to as sustainability consulting, green consulting, eco consulting, or environmental management consulting. The common denominator in all green energy is the avoidance of the depletion of natural resources to maintain an ecological balance. Sustainability focuses on meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs, and is composed of economic, environmental, and social sustainability. Green energy consultants or experts are often retained to help companies in becoming socially and environmentally responsible in how they conduct business operations.
Large renewable energy and biochemical consulting firms like Lee Enterprises Consulting normally have many different types of sustainability experts and offer a wide range of services in biofuels, biochemicals, biotechnologies, biomaterials, synthetic biology commercialization, feedstocks, and hemp/cannabis.
