The Energy hierarchy

1) Behaviour change, reduce the need for energy (e.g. reduce temperatures, switch off equipment when not needed). 2) Improve air tightness and reduce heating losses: Insulate and draught proof. 3) Use energy more efficiently (e.g. fit energy saving light bulbs, buy more A-rated electrical appliances) 4) Any continuing use of fossil fuel should be clean and efficient (e.g. condensing gas boilers) 5) Use renewable energy (in order of effectiveness, e.g. biomass, ground source heat pumps, solar thermal).

The Energy Awards This project has a strong link to the County's Switch it Off project usually taking place in October/November Schools were encouraged to launch a series of energy saving initiatives across curriculum, campus and community over Switch it Off! Fortnight (Autumn term) and maintain a focus on energy use over a six month

  • period. This allowed a review of energy use against previous years.

Winners of the project included St Nicholas CE Middle School (Pinvin) & Perdiswell Primary School (Worcester). By participating in the scheme and taking a whole school effort to reducing their energy use, they cut their energy bills by 14% and 18% respectively resulting in a financial saving of approximately £1000 each!

Working with schools

  • SLA: 97% sign up to energy management

module

  • 90% Ecoschools – 71 Green Flags
  • AMR coverage and training
  • Newsletters, Walk rounds, policy and guidance
  • BEMS support
  • DECs tender and coverage
  • Spend to save funding: Academies can access

Spend to Save funding

  • £1m capital fund over 3 years approved by Council
  • Fund is essentially in the form of interest free loan
  • Investment is repaid annually from the energy savings
  • btained, these are calculated and fixed.
  • Maximum payback period is 10 years – more flexible than

Salix

  • The school can contribute if the payback exceeds 10 years.
  • Schools keep the ongoing savings once investment is paid
