Luton Council supports:
Luton Council has pledged to ensure that Luton is a net zero town by 2040, ten years ahead of the government target.
Taking action on climate change
With the declaration of a climate emergency, we've put the need to confront climate change as an important priority. To tackle the climate emergency, we've pledged to ensure that Luton is a net zero town by 2040, ten years ahead of the government’s own target.
Meeting this ambitious objective will need everyone in Luton to be involved. We need to:
- know what the people of Luton think
- listen to ideas concerning the measures you want to see implemented in the town
- understand the scale and pace of change that is required
Get involved
You can get involved by letting us know your ideas and suggestions through:
- Luton – Let’s Talk, our engagement hub
- emailing us on [email protected]

Luton Energy Doctor
Small businesses and charities in Luton can access free energy efficiency advice and support through the Energy Doctor programme, delivered by environment charity Groundwork East and Luton Council accessing UK government funding.
The Luton Energy Doctor will provide free support to enable businesses and charitable organisations working within Luton to identify quick wins and longer-term energy efficiency actions, and to signpost to funding and further support.
This support will help businesses make informed decisions about which energy efficiency solution is best for them.
Through the scheme, businesses will receive energy audits and assessments with the aim that they can use the information to make quick, practical and tangible savings whether in operational energy consumption or energy costs.
This free support is available until 31 May 2025.
