As part of the DfE’s £18.6m decarbonisation pilot, GRAHAM Asset Management will install low-carbon heating solutions and improve the fabric of the Cheshire schools selected, which are run by the North West Academies Trust. The chosen schools include Acton Church of England Primary Academy in Nantwich and Calveley Primary Academy in Tarporley.

The sustainability improvements will impact significantly on energy efficiency, helping the sector achieve its net zero carbon goals.

Gareth Smyth, Operations Director at GRAHAM Asset Management, commented:

“GRAHAM is delighted to be part of DfE's journey to net zero. This pilot programme, awarded under the Fusion 21 Decarbonisation, Heating and Renewables Framework, provides a valuable opportunity to develop a scalable solution to accelerate decarbonisation in the future.”
