Are you interested in improving the energy performance of your school buildings but not sure where to start? We’ve refreshed and published a new energy efficiency checklist for schools. It’s available to download here.

Energy efficiency checklist for your school

The checklist is an easy-to-follow guide designed to start you on your energy efficiency journey. It will help you identify areas for improvement and provide a clear pathway to simple but effective ways to start saving energy quickly.

It also gives an overview of the more in-depth actions you can take to cut your energy use, such as installing rooftop solar panels or replacing your heating system.

Funding available for county-maintained schools

The question of how to fund such improvements is crucial. Recently Oxfordshire County Council re-launched their interest free loan scheme to enable county-maintained schools to install LED lighting and/or solar PV panels. You can find out more about this funding opportunity here.
