Net Zero by SCAPE

Key resources

We aim to maintain and curate a useful library of resources to support your net zero journey.

The library has a wealth of information from government papers and roadmaps to research, case studies and articles that give you further advice and support.

If you have a suggestion for an addition that would add value, please let us know.

ROAD TO NET ZERO: FIRST STEPS

Know your estate: understand the carbon footprint of what you have now, how much energy do your buildings use and how energy efficient are they.
Planning and strategy: work out how you’re going to get from where you are to where you want to be. Ask yourself as an asset operator what do I have to do to get to net zero.
Interventions: ask yourself is this a one hit fix or if I am going to retrofit progressively with small interventions.
Target setting: work out in specific terms, the building performance you want. Prioritise what is important in a project. Setting building performance and whole life carbon targets is a huge motivational factor on your team and the project supply chain.
Delivery: get a collaborative team to work to deliver those targets. You can no longer afford the inefficiency of working in silos. Put your project team together at the earliest stage.
