Our environmental sustainability strategy
Our long-term vision is to achieve net zero carbon by 2050. We’ve outlined our detailed plans to improve our environmental outputs over the next three years.
We focus on six key themes:
- Knowing our homes and our wider environmental impact
- Affordable warmth and carbon reduction
- Climate resilience and adaptation
- Nature and green spaces
- Energy and heat networks
- Awareness and reducing consumption.
