Carbon Futures has announced the opening of a new office in London, marking a major milestone in the firm's national expansion strategy. The new base is designed to support a growing portfolio of projects across the UK and will allow the consultancy to collaborate more closely with organisations in the capital and the South of England.

Loreana Padron has joined the team as Director to lead the London operation. An expert in sustainability and low-carbon project delivery, Padron is a specialist in climate-resilient design and retrofit. Her background in sustainable architecture and low-carbon strategy is expected to be instrumental in helping clients navigate the transition toward a sustainable built environment.

Andrew Money, Director at Carbon Futures, commented: "Expanding to the south of England is a significant milestone for Carbon Futures. It strengthens our ability to support organisations across the UK in creating transformative, sustainable communities. Loreana's expertise in architecture, retrofit and low-carbon design makes her an ideal leader for our London operation, and we are delighted to welcome her to the team."
