Decarbonisation solutions

Woman walking with phone in hand

Public services have major net zero milestones to complete in the coming years and there is so many aspects to think about. Putting together the necessary elements of your Net Zero planning process and creating and carrying out energy-saving projects will be made easier with the help of a decarbonisation strategy. YPO can support you in this with a one-stop shop of frameworks to add to your strategies.

Local authorities

The number of initiatives aimed at advancing the UK government's Net Zero by 2050 objective is increasing as it continues to be a top priority. One of the several programs helping public sector companies cut emissions by 75% by 2037 is the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme.  

NHS

Finding a path to net zero emissions is especially difficult for a complicated institution the size of the NHS. NHS Net Zero Expert Panel, examined around 600 pieces of evidence that were given, and carried out substantial research and modelling in order to determine how and when the NHS can achieve net zero. YPO can support the healthcare sector to a net zero future.
