2. Capital & Climate Change Strategy 4 elements to it: Working with both FE & HE sectors to help them meet targets required under the legislation Promoting environmental sustainability on campus and in the curriculum Investing in low/zero carbon estate Driving research and innovation in low carbon industries

3. College Estates statistics (2012-13) Number of sites: 139 Number of buildings: 337 Gross internal area (sq m): 802,904 Value of estate: £1,030,320,836 Maintenance costs: £20,741,790 Energy consumption: £41,020,923

4. Annual report to Council SFC’s response to its public body duties: SFC policy & institutional sustainable development activities Carbon reduction in the sectors Carbon reduction at SFC 2010-12: sectoral power consumption as proxy for emissions data

5. Estimated College Emissions 2010 - 2012 Non-residential gas & oil consumption down 20% Electricity use up 7% But: Based on returns from only 1/3 of colleges

6. Estimated college and university emissions 2010-12 Main sources for both sectors are electricity, and non-residential gas & oil

7. Estimated data for last 3 years, standardised reports from 2013 Overall sector footprint not decreasing to target Ongoing technical Issues e.g. carbon conversion factors (re-visit historical emissions/re-baseline?); addition of scope 3 emissions Urgent need to re-baseline college footprints Carbon Reporting

8. …What can't be measured isn't worth managing? ‘What gets measured, gets managed.’ What doesn’t get measured doesn’t get managed. ‘It is better to pick the wrong priority than none at all.’ (P. Drucker)

9. Corporate reporting Should reflect your objectives and aspirations Every institution is different; what do you all have in common? Reporting solely for external purposes does not drive change internally; what’s the link to internal governance? Good indicators can drive useful actions and behaviours

10. New SFC Capital & Climate Change Team Estates data collection & analysis Commissioning estates condition surveys Management of existing NPD projects Developing new capital funding programmes & guidance Ensuring new projects are exemplars in carbon reduction and sustainability
