Julie BankesSenior Sustainability Advisor
A Brief History• 2002 Reporting on
environmental and community issues.
• 2008 RENEWABLES Strategy• 2011
• 2013 SustainAbilies launched
What can we do to address the urgent issues that affect our future
– the future of those who work with and for us, and the
communities in which we work
SustainAbilities – The Strategy
• 4 Capitals– Social– Natural– Financial– Knowledge
• 5 Outcomes– Places that benefit people– Public service in the public
interest– More skills more opportunities– Positive environmental impacts– Sustainable growth
• 15 Goals• 48 Targets• 1 Vision
Corporate Vision 2020
Construction Business Plan
Positive Environmental Impact• Halving Carbon Emissions by 2020 (based on 2013
baseline)• Reduce Carbon emissions from business travel by
30% by 2020• Reduce Carbon emissions from site based
generation by 30% by 2020 • 2014 results
– Reduced business travel emission by 3.78%– Reduced site generated energy emissions by
11.21%– Reduced absolute carbon by 5.04%
Where do our emissions come from?• GHG from Scope 1,2 and 3
emissions
Scope 1
Scope 2
Scope 3
Breakdown of Scope 1 emissions
Fuel
GasGenerators
Actions to reduce impact• Reduce miles
– Webex, VC, telephone conferencing– Change Behaviour– Car sharing
• Reduce emissions per mile– More efficient vehicles– Smaller engines
• Increase efficiency for electricity supply– Connection to grid– Hybrid generators– Correct sizing– Renewables
This time it’s personal
• Behaviour change through:– Atlas mileage monitoring– Vehicle tracking– Emission target in appraisal system– Driver training– Individual emission report – Imbursement for car sharing– Fleet portal
Making it easy
• Green Travel plans –Site and Office• Cycle to work Scheme (facilities)
Greater Efficiency
• Hybrid Vehicles - Ampera• Smaller vehicle payment incentive• Strict CO2 emission levels• Greater mpg
Generating change
• Connection to grid• Hybrid Generators• Solar power• Wind Power• Charging procedure
Materials Matter• Sustainable procurement (Cradle to
site)• Whole life costing – design (Cradle to
grave)
Carbon in Use
Walton Centre – Fabric First
Leicester Office – Passivhaus
How to reduce energy in use• Reducing thermal Bridging• Superior air tightness• Off site manufacturing
(lifts/stairwells)• Structurally framed panels • Modularised service risers• Low energy lighting
Workforce Engagement
