Grant Thornton has joined forces with the Carbon Trust to offer corporate finance advice to start-up environmental businesses.

The Carbon Trust's incubator scheme gives start-ups that have a commercial low carbon business plan the opportunity to meet with Grant Thornton, as well as law firm Mills & Reeve, to work out a business strategy.

Dr Simon Crook, clean technology corporate finance manager at Grant Thornton, said: 'We're delighted to have been selected to work with the Carbon Trust incubator companies. We believe our considerable sector experience, breadth of business expertise and international reach will make a real difference to these exciting low carbon businesses. We look forward to working with this select group of dynamic companies as they grow and make a positive impact on the environment.'

The scheme offers low carbon businesses £60,000 of support on a 12- to 18-month basis.
