…. This target applies to public access buildings and sites where we pay for the energy supplies, our vehicles and highway assets like streetlighting and car parks. We will invest in energy saving measures to reduce carbon across the property portfolio. To offset remaining carbon, we will identify schemes which allow us to generate larger scale renewable power in the borough, while supporting a range…

… neutral operations by 2030. This is a challenging target that will require new ways of working, innovative approaches to our operations and a carefully coordinated use of the funds available. It will involve using our own building stock and land to host electricity generating technology, for example through the installation of solar panels. This cleaner energy generation will help us to reduce…

… is that it would be unfeasible or unviable to achieve such a position for us. For example, the only way we could be zero carbon is for all vehicles to use zero carbon fuels (i.e. electricity sourced from renewable sources) and for all gas boilers to be replaced by alternative technology running on renewable energy. Facilities such as crematoriums, heated swimming pools and heating systems in our building…

… Carbon offsetting Residents responses to carbon offsetting were very focussed and informed, noting this is the final stage in a process to become carbon neutral. Importantly, it was reiterated that this must be used as a last resort and must be a transparent part of the process. We understand this and know offsetting becomes an option only once energy use has been reduced to a minimum, through…

energy saving measures and onsite renewable power. The next stage is to identify opportunities for larger scale renewable electricity generation which can feed back into the grid allowing carbon credits to be claimed against any carbon sourced energy still required (i.e. gas for boilers). Once that is achieved, we will look to tree planting as the final stage in the offsetting process. What…
