two.1.4) Short description
The University requires a plan setting out the enhancements required to its built
environment, to realise its aspirations and to formalise its journey to net zero scope 1 and 2
carbon emissions by 2035. The University also wishes to gain clarity what capital will be
required to achieve net zero scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions by 2035 and as the estates
heating is decarbonised, how the energy mix will alter.
The requirements are split across three parts as follows:
• Part 1 - Detailed scoping of buildings across three campuses.
• Part 2 - Carbon management/decarbonisation plan.
• Part 3 - Energy mix exercise as heating is decarbonised.
The plan through to 2035 should be developed to RIBA Stage 2 concept design only.
Detail within the plan should include the upgrades required to heating systems, hot water
systems, windows, loft/wall insolation, BMS and controls, with accurate detail on capital
required, power requirements of proposals and energy, revenue and carbon savings resulting
from the work and costs to deliver the work.
