Louise Singleton is a Principal Consultant in Gemserv’s Low Carbon Business Unit. She has over a decade of experience in the energy and renewables sectors, from both an operational and business development perspective. She is currently the Programme Manager for the Heat Network Efficiency Scheme (HNES), a government-funded grant scheme designed to improve the efficiency of existing district and communal heating schemes.

This diverse experience gives Louise a comprehensive understanding of working with government departments and industry bodies to implement transformational industry change. She holds an MSc in Climate Change from the University of East Anglia, and a BSc in Geology and Geography from the University of Birmingham.
