Decarbonisation route map: Powering public assets for the long term
In today’s climate, asset leadership matters more than ever.
With fiscal pressure mounting, policy reform accelerating, and the climate clock ticking, public estate leaders must make bold, evidence-based decisions.
Local authorities and blue light organisations manage thousands of public assets. These buildings house essential services. But many are carbon-intensive, costly to run, and increasingly unfit for purpose.
While the Low Carbon Skills Fund (LCSF) will not be going ahead as expected this year, there is still hope for the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS) which has historically opened for a short window of time in autumn.
The Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme provides grants for public sector bodies to fund heat decarbonisation and energy efficiency measures.
Always by your side, Norse Group have developed a route map, Powering public assets for the long term, to help you to align vision, funding, and action—while positioning your estate for transformation.
Our team delivers the expertise needed to decarbonise your estate and ensure your assets are efficiently maintained on the path to a net-zero future.
The journey to net zero won’t be achieved overnight, but it can start today.
