    – Name the regulatory framework of the European Green Deal and the Fit for 55% package, and how these affect businesses in different sectors.

    – Execute strategies to reduce the energy footprint of businesses, adapting business practices to the requirements of Fit for 55% and the European Green Deal.

    – Select opportunities to invest in clean energy technologies, such as renewable energy and energy efficient solutions, to optimise business operations. – Motivate collaboration within the business and with external stakeholders to promote sustainable practices, supporting the green transition as an integral part of the company culture.
