Sustainability
Maintain your energy strategy for the long term and reinforce the energy efficiency measures put in place.
Many educational establishments struggle to sustain their energy strategy as priorities and policies shift and management teams change. Often one-off improvements are not monitored for on-going impact and/or a lack of funding expertise makes it difficult to maintain and enhance the school estate.
Why build in sustainability?
Produce energy policies so you can be sure that your energy strategy is followed and maintained
Continuously monitor energy performance to produce ongoing savings
Manage and refine all aspects of your energy strategy for greater efficiency.
Asking S2e to build sustainability into your energy strategy will:
Embed your energy strategy with robust monitoring and behavioural change
Increase buy-in from pupils and staff
Allow you to introduce further improvement as budget allows
Bring you the expertise of specialist chartered building surveyors for the education sector.
Collaboration and recommendations
To help you create a sustainable energy strategy we will draw up energy policies that are inspiring but realistic and that motivate both pupils and staff alike.
We will ensure energy performance monitoring provides monthly data for better decision making, keep you up to date with new technologies that offer further improvements and share our expertise on obtaining decarbonisation funding.
