OUR MISSION

To produce and maintain an evolving programme of projects and actions that together deliver a net zero future for North Northamptonshire.

We are creating an initial programme of project options for the area that will help plan a just transition to that net zero future and potentially lead to funding to deliver it.

We would like your feedback on which ideas you like and what you think you might do to change for the better. Please complete our survey here

1

Energy

The ways in which we generate, distribute, and use energy can be carbon intensive and wasteful. We’re looking for ways to accelerate the transition to clean and renewable energy sources and for ideas on how everyone can adopt more efficient energy systems so we use less of it.
2

Buildings

How can existing homes and businesses use less energy? How should new housing developments or commercial buildings be built so they release less CO2e in construction and benefit from clean efficient use of energy ongoing?

3

Transport

Low emission cars, trucks and public transport options are changing the way we travel and ship goods. How can we help the transition to cleaner vehicles and make existing vehicles greener?
