Green consultancy powers on with £9.5 million boost

A sustainability consultancy has secured more than £9.5 million Government support to power a raft of decarbonisation projects.

C3 Group has been backed to roll out new technology across schools, colleges, doctors’ surgeries, healthcare estates and council-owned buildings in the North of England.

Work will be carried out at sites in Leeds, York, Dewsbury, Manchester and Newcastle, and is set to include solar panels, air source heat pumps and low-carbon heating systems. 

The blueprint follows Hull-headquartered C3 Group’s support for multiple funding applications in the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme. 

Ash Wray, C3 Group co-founder, said: “Successfully securing this level of funding is a huge achievement for our team.

“It will transform and futureproof buildings with the latest technology, which will significantly reduce their carbon footprints by making them much more energy efficient.

“We look at each building individually to determine how it could be made more energy efficient through renewable and sustainable technology, before creating a plan for the property.”

Daniel Haley, from C3 Group’s sister company GW Power-Safe, added: “We can oversee the full decarbonisation process from start to finish, which gives us a very compelling offer across the public and private sectors.”
