… decarbonisation plans. The carbon savings achieved from corporate property during 2023-24 are as a result of a continued focus on property rationalisation and improved monitoring and control of energy use. Further steady emission reductions in future years are expected from ongoing property rationalisation and improved energy management. However, achieving savings at the magnitude needed to achieve…

… for the decarbonisation of heat in corporate buildings is through the PSDS, which is highly competitive, is only applicable where existing boilers are at end of life, and requires having robust feasibility studies and match funding in place. The Council is now able to measure the energy use for electric vehicle charging at corporate buildings. This is currently around 0.4% of total electricity use…
… of the remaining predominantly complex projects continues to progress, which includes the installation of passively safe lighting columns. A small further increase in streetlighting emissions (c.2%) is expected for 2024-25 due to the Council adopting new streetlighting assets. In future years any increased energy consumption should be offset by continuing improvements in LED light efficiency, grid…
… of the remaining predominantly complex projects continues to progress, which includes the installation of passively safe lighting columns with LED technologies. The LED replacement programme has generated average energy cost savings (at today’s prices) for the Council of £6m per year since 2016. The Council will switch its existing electricity tariff to a 100% renewable electricity tariff by 2023…
