The Energy Partnership has been developed to encourage partners to work together to address climate change in the city, with a particular focus on reducing carbon emissions through energy use.
The partnership is a sub-group of the Southampton Connect that aims to bring together a range of key actors and key emitters to develop ways in which they can reduce their own carbon emissions from the use of more efficient and sustainable energy, and influence the behaviour of other organisations to do the same. 
The partnership includes representatives from a range of key organisations and networks based or active in the city, including the City Council, energy providers, major employers in the city, the PCT and the universities.
The partnership seeks to deliver a number of outcomes:
Acting as a sub-partnership of the LSP to report against relevant objectives in the Community Strategy 
Contributing to an evidence base and developing actions to improve performance against NI 186 per capita reduction in CO2 emissions in the LA area 
Providing input to the production of a city-wide carbon footprint 
The partnership has ambitions to expand over the next few years to address other environmental issues such as water use, biodiversity, waste and sustainable transport.  
The partnership is co-chaired by Southampton City Council and The University of Southampton and works in partnership with the Southampton Low Carbon Group
