… equivalents and investing in renewable and low carbon technologies such as biomass boilers and solar photovoltaic (PV) panels. Another key driver has been a reduction in the emissions factor for grid electricity. This factor is applied to our consumption figure to establish our emissions and has reduced considerably over time as the carbon intensity of the grid has reduced. This has been a result…
… such as biomass boilers and solar photovoltaic (PV) panels. Another key driver has been a reduction in the emissions factor for grid electricity as explained in section 3.1. It is anticipated that the emissions factor for electricity will continue to reduce, with targets for the grid to be net-zero carbon by 2050. It is this de- carbonisation that is driving the transition from fossil fuels…
… has risen by approximately 1.4mm/year from the start of the 20th century. The International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) global climate change report published in August 2021 has been seen as a “code red for humanity”. The report makes it clear that human activities have unequivocally caused observed increases in greenhouse gas emissions and that we are perilously close to hitting…
… reduction of snow and ice cover, and changes in atmospheric and ocean circulation and regional weather patterns, which influence seasonal rainfall conditions. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) sets out the following established facts: Human activities are estimated to have caused approximately 1.2°C of global warming above pre- industrial levels; It is likely…
… of the shift from the use of traditional carbon-based fuels such as coal and gas for electricity generation to cleaner sources such as wind and solar. It is anticipated that the emissions factor for electricity will continue to reduce, with targets for the national grid to be net-zero carbon by 2050. It is this de-carbonisation that is driving the transition from fossil fuels to electricity for heating…
