Solar panels for healthcare: more reasons to install
Reduce carbon emissions in line with sector targets.
The NHS is targeting net zero emissions by 2040, including an 80% reduction in carbon emissions by 2032.
The NHS net zero report estimates that installing solar panels on primary care facilities such as GP surgeries would save 7,000 tonnes in carbon emissions a year.
Protect against changing energy costs
Healthcare facilities face high annual energy bills, with a 20-bed care home estimated to consume around 395,000kWh a year in electricity and gas.
Installing solar panels and battery storage will reduce your organisation’s vulnerability to increases in energy prices. Good Energy Solar customer, Aldbury Care Home, saves over £30,000 a year in energy costs.
Meet supply chain requirements for sustainability
By 2030, the NHS will “no longer purchase from suppliers that do not meet or exceed our commitment to net zero”.
Having a credible carbon reduction plan, including increasing the use of renewable energy, demonstrates a commitment to sustainable business practices.
