Over £1 billion has been allocated to the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS) to support reducing the carbon footprint of public buildings in the UK. For the NHS, decarbonisation of the NHS estate is vital to support its net zero goals.

Through decarbonisation strategies and carbon reduction projects, the NHS can reduce backlog maintenance, enabling estates staff to improve patient and staff experience and enhance the ability to deliver high quality care. Any long-term financial gain generated from energy cost reductions can be used towards areas such as high-risk maintenance issues, new equipment, or additional staff.

Our Decarbonisation of Estates Framework Agreement supports both the NHS and wider public sector in achieving its decarbonisation plans by providing the building blocks to get net zero plans off the ground. The framework agreement includes internal and external wall insulation, ground source and air source heat pumps, electric heating solutions, PV systems, ventilation systems, lighting works as well as traditional works such as replacement of windows and doors, and solutions to tackle damp and mould in domestic properties.
