Hounslow Council decarbonisation

Johnson Controls and Asset+ have delivered work with Hounslow Council that has resulted in a 50% reduction in carbon emissions and costs in schools and public buildings. One school even cut electricity bills by 64% and there was a £375,000 saving p/a over the corporate estate.  

Hounslow Council’s 2017 data showed that 79% of the borough emissions came from gas. Schools across the borough alone were responsible for 67% of the Council’s carbon footprint placing a question mark over the Council’s ability to reach net-zero goals by 2030.  

The partnership also brought benefits to the wider community. Teams saw a huge engagement and appetite from the schools, and during COP26, delivered a presentation to 3,000 pupils to discuss the climate and importance of green tech skills.
