In 2019 the Government introduced the legally binding target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net zero by 2050 as part of their clean growth strategy.
Whilst this may seem a long time away, we need to act now to achieve this and there are lots of milestones on the way.
Our Response to Climate Change project has been set up to address this challenge and as part of our aim, to improve the quality and sustainability of our homes and embed sound environmental practices.
We will consider our environmental impact and decarbonisation across all our activities, demonstrating commitment to our established ‘sound business head with a strong social heart’ approach.
Here's a look at some of the work we are doing as part of our response to climate change.
With the rising costs of fossil fuels and their negative impact on the environment, we’re looking at greener options that could help you reduce your household bills.
Here at Karbon, we’re committed to playing our part in creating a sustainable environment for current and future generations.
The journey to a more sustainable future is something that we all need to map out and here at Karbon, our journey to Net Zero is very much at the forefront of our decision making.
We’re investing in energy saving upgrades to improve the performance of our existing homes. Customer Colin Barnes of Ouston tells us what’s involved and how he’s already feeling the benefits.
Looking to get our on your bike this spring? Sustrans have a wide range of cycle routes that you can download from their website.
Craig Lonsdale, Asset Sustainability Manager, shows us some simple daily changes you can make to help, and tells us what Karbon is doing too.
Ever wondered how much you could save by turning off your electrical appliances, rather than leaving them on standby?
We spoke to customers Claire and Stephen Riddell about the benefits of having an air source heat pump installed in their home.
As part of Net Zero Week 2022 we took a look at how Karbon is supporting local communities to protect the environment for future generations.
We want to bring our customers along on our Net Zero journey and show how they can benefit from environmental changes and reduce their impact, to make a sustainable environment for current and future generations.
From wall, floor and loft insulation to photovoltaic solar panels and air source heat pumps, the energy saving measures we can add to our homes come in all shapes and sizes.
At Karbon Homes, we are running a number of experiments to help us explore innovation in the area of net zero homes.
