Prior to his appointment as Development Officer Energy and Climate Change at the City of Sydney, Mr Jones was Chief Executive Officer of the London Climate Change Agency (LCCA) and prior to that Woking Borough Council’s Director of Thameswey Ltd.

During his time in London Mr Jones set up and ran the LCCA, developed the energy and climate change elements of the London Plan, Mayor’s Climate Change Action Plan and the new Mayoral Climate Change Statutory Duty, as well as developing and implementing decentralised energy and renewable energy projects in London.

During his time at Woking, Mr Jones reduced carbon emissions by 77.5 per cent from 1990 levels in 2004 and undertook groundbreaking work on energy efficiency, trigeneration, renewable gases from waste, alternative fuels for transport, renewable energy and fuel cells. Under Allan, Woking installed 81 private wire decentralised energy systems, nearly 10 per cent of the United Kingdom’s total installed solar energy photovoltaics and the first Combined Heat and Power fuel cell in the UK.
