Nottinghamshire County Council Secures Funding to Reduce Carbon Emissions at Two Council Sites
Mon, 12 April 2021
Nottinghamshire County Council has been allocated funding worth more than £400,000 by Government-owned Salix Finance. Funding will be used to reduce carbon emissions and generate solar power at two council sites.
The old gas boiler at Council’s Gedling View building will be replaced with a more efficient air source heat pump, as well as new solar panel installation. Meanwhile, Hagg Farm, based in Peak District, will also see its oil boiler replaced with an air source heat pump, the installation of heat recovery ventilation, and additional solar panels.
These upgrades are estimated to save around 232 tonnes and 581 tonnes of carbon dioxide over the next 20 years, respectively.
