Energy and climate change
We are committed to tackling climate change via innovative and forward-thinking building practices and energy solutions. From an Electric Vehicle Charging Point Framework to installation of greener energy sources, cutting costs and reducing impact on the environment.

Decarbonisation program
The County Council is implementing a Decarbonisation Programme across its corporate and schools’ estates, funded by grants totalling £29.4m from the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) under their Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme. This is supported by a further £3.2m from the County Council’s Schools Condition Allowance funding.
The decarbonisation work being carried out on the schools’ estate comprises four categories: window replacements, photo-voltaic panels, heating controls and oil to gas boiler replacements.
If you would like to find out more information about our Decarbonisation programme, please contact us.
Electric vehicles
Hampshire County Council has procured an electric vehicle (EV) charging framework. We are leading the way in getting more Electric Vehicle (EV) charging points installed across Hampshire and the southern region.
Carbon reduction
Innovative, cost-effective solutions to save money and energy consumption
Interested in reducing energy consumption in your buildings? We commissioned and now oversee the running of an energy monitoring system which is in all our schools and our non-educational estates. This enables individual building occupiers to monitor the energy consumption of their buildings on an hourly basis, quickly identify any anomalies and correct them.
We deliver legislative reporting and monitoring of energy and water usage throughout the authority, including the carbon reduction commitment (CRC) and production of display energy certificate (DEC). We also offer an energy and water consumption advisory service.
Energy management
Helping your organisation reduce costs, improve efficiency and tread lightly on our planet
With 35 years of experience helping to reduce energy costs, we understand what an organisation can do to reduce its energy usage and environmental impact. Our work ranges from electric vehicle recharging points to a unique energy monitoring system.
We manage energy usage at around 7,000 buildings of varying types and ages, including schools, care homes, libraries and offices. We have a detailed understanding of how people use energy and the practical ways to reduce consumption and cost. We won the first ever Environment Agency water efficiency award for a local authority for long term water efficiency and excellence.
