Introduction

 Welcome
 Why we’re here
 Agenda
Why we’re here

 Environmental   sustainability is important to
  all of us – whether we like it or not!
 Many reasons: social responsibility, financial,
  reputational, environmental impact
 Part of our strategic plan objectives
 Lots of progress made since the last seminar
  but we must do more
 Technical work will continue: energy use in
  buildings and IT, waste management,
  transport, catering
Why we’re here

 Now   being formalised: we’ll use
  assistance of the Carbon Trust through
  our membership of their HE Carbon
  Management programme to translate our
  policy into action plans
 Getting as many people involved as
  possible is essential – the technical work
  will deliver but the behavioural change
  both here and at our homes makes a real
  difference
Why we’re here

 We   want your involvement and your ideas
 Some ideas but need people to put them
  into action:
   London   Met swap shop?
   Wildlife gardens wherever we can find
     space?
   Climate action groups?

Higher Education
Carbon Management
Programme (HECM6)


London Metropolitan University has been chosen
as one of 33 Higher Education Institutions to be a
part of the HECM 6 Programme and to deliver a
University Carbon Management Plan by March
2011.
Launch last week and an aspirational target of
reducing our Carbon Footprint by a third over the
next 5 years equivalent to more that 5,000 tonnes
of CO2!!!
welcome to HECM6

 the largest HECM
 programme yet . . .
 19 large HEIs
 14 smaller HEIs
 combined energy bill
 of around £46million
 carbon emissions of
 ~ 346,000 tonnes
HECM progress to date
 over 264,000 tCO2 pa savings identified
                  to date
  That’s over 4,000 tCO2 per university
  total cost savings identified of £52m pa
    on average £825k per HEI per year
    (London Met Energy Bill £2.8M last year!!)
HECM Phase 6 – 10/11
HECM Phase 6 – 10/11
aims of the HECM
programme
To help you to cost effectively cut carbon
  emissions from your estate and operations by:
   ensuring   senior support for carbon management
    across your organisation
   providing technical know how and training on carbon
    saving projects and technologies
   helping you to comply with relevant regulatory
    requirements
   facilitating cross-sector learning so you can learn
    from and support each other
the HECM certificate -
criteria
CMP shows
   full sign off by Senior Management Team
   overall cost and carbon savings clearly stated
   the investment needed to achieve savings also
    clearly stated
   target for reducing carbon, backed up by quantified
    carbon reduction projects
   all projects have owners and deadlines
   policies and procedures reflect Carbon
    Management
the main deliverable …
a Carbon Management
Plan
   Foreword [Principal/ Vice Chancellor/ Sponsor]
   Management Summary [Prog. Sponsor]
   1 Introduction
   2 Carbon Management Strategy
   3 Emissions Baseline and Projections

   6 Actions to Embed Carbon Management
   7 Programme Management
the five step process
 step 1: mobilise the organisation
   step 2: set baseline and forecast
      step 3: identify and quantify projects
            step 4: define your Carbon Management Plan (CMP)
               step 5: implementation

Management Programme (HECM6)

The University Environmental Working Group
will transform into two key Groups to manage
the HECM 6 Programme:


The Carbon Management Programme Board
The Carbon Management Team
CM Programme Board

 set   and review strategic direction and targets
 ownthe scope of the CM Programme and prioritise carbon
 reduction projects
 monitor    progress towards objectives and targets
 remove     obstacles to successful completion of CM projects
 champion    plans for financial provision of CM projects
 ensure   there is a framework to co-ordinate projects in CM
 Programme
                       …. not just a committee but a driver!

Results were published in the Times Higher Education on
10.06.10.
More universities than ever before. 137 were eligible for inclusion
in the Green League 2010. Of these, 133 universities provided
People & Planet and HEFCE with enough information to be
entered into the Green League 2010. This is an increase from 131
in 2009, 129 in 2008 and 120 universities which took part in the
first-ever Green League in 2007.
This year P&P strengthened its methodology and process to make
the Green league 2010 the most rigorous yet. After extensive
consultation with environment managers and experts in the sector,
they added new criteria to measure carbon reductions,
sustainable procurement initiatives and the levels and impact of
student/staff engagement.
HEFCE's own Estates Management Statistics reveal that,
compared to a 7% increase in headcount, the HE sector's carbon
emissions have actually risen by 25% since 2005 – which is the
base year against which sector-wide carbon reduction targets
have been set [48% cut by 2020].
