Successfully reducing carbon emissions at the Jubilee Sports Centre

One of the first projects to gain funding from the University’s Carbon Management Plan was the installation of a swimming pool cover in the Jubilee Sports Centre.

In order to minimise the loss of heat from the swimming pool, a cover was installed in 2012.

As a result of this project and the hard work of sports centre staff, the cover has continued to deliver an impressive estimated annual saving of approximately 181,000kWh, £5,000 and 35 tonnes/CO2.

The Carbon Management Plan Steering Group are always looking for new opportunities to help reduce carbon emissions. If you have a suggestion for a carbon saving project, please contact the team by emailing: [email protected]
