A University of Manchester initiative to actively manage carbon emissions, by raising awareness, changing behaviour and targeting investment

• First Phase Objective – Academic year 2011/12

CCS – Outline • Building Level data (All Utilities)

• Proof of Concept - Working Pilot 2010/11 – 7 Buildings

• Electricity only in 2011/12 (display Co2 / Kwh)

• Data Warehouse (Coherent / Systems Link / CRC data Collector)

• Establish total annual cumulative consumption per building

• Each building assigned a carbon ‘budget’ and reduction target (arbitrary 3%)

• On-line performance can be tracked (24 hour updates)

• Estates / Occupiers work together on carbon reduction initiatives

• No financial incentive model – recognition and calculated savings scheme / with salix support

• Test Occupier Engagement Models 10/11 – Develop 11/12

Co-ordination / Communication • Carbon Management Team

• DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF ESTATES = Head of Environmental Sustainability

• Carbon Credit Scheme Working Group (Academic / Residencies / Finance / Estates Technical / Energy Management)

• CCS led by Admin / Finance / Energy Team
