In the face of Climate Change Denbighshire has to rise and meet the challenge of developing a low carbon future. As such, Members of the Cabinet agreed that Denbighshire should make a commitment, in a partnership arrangement with the Carbon Trust, to reduce its Carbon Footprint by 60% over the next 10 years.
The 60% reduction will be achieved by a combination of asset management, energy management through good house keeping (staff awareness campaign), renewable energy ( Biomass, heat pumps, solar power) and investing in low energy technologies (heating and lighting controls).
The benefits of participating in a partnership arrangement include reducing C02 emissions, saving money by managing and reducing energy bills, meeting regulation, raising the Council's profile to be amongst the top performing authorities and leading by example - influencing business and the community on green issues.
