Decarbonisation

Synopsis

With reduction of backlog maintenance within healthcare estates being a key issue for many NHS capital and estates teams, delivering on net zero targets with reduced finances is becoming increasingly challenging.

Our presentation will offer solutions for benchmarking estates in line with the NHS Net Zero Carbon Standard, via a Development Control Plan (DCP) approach allowing short, medium and long-term strategies to be aligned with clinical, estate and digital needs.

We will provide an example where we have identified carbon figures for two existing hospital sites without introduction of costly retrospective metering to gather data, moving through carbon reduction opportunities across a selction of scenarios enabling an NHS Trust the ability to strategise best carbon reduction outcomes, potential carbon offsetting and life cycle investments.
