Guidance on Carbon-Saviings in Buildings:

This document was put together by the Future Leap consultancy (contact [email protected]) in conjunction with the Society of Local Council Clerks (SLCC). It is intended to support local councils in making decisions about carbon saving and contains a checklist of the possible carbon saving measures and accompanying prerequisites together with a review of factors to consider in decision-making. In order to provide real-world examples of how decarbonisation interventions could be applied in a real-world context, two very different case studies were examined: Banwell Youth and Community Centre in North Somerset, and Newark Town Hall in Nottinghamshire.
