What is decarbonisation?
Decarbonisation is defined by removing your dependencies on fossil fuels in order to reduce your carbon footprint and drive toward your Net Zero target. The process of decarbonisation involves removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere by implementing a number of different strategies including the installation of heat pumps, PV panels, and even simple changes to insulation.
We have been able to deliver over £60m of sustainable improvements to organisations in both the public and private sectors, funded by Salix and other third-party providers. Furthermore, working alongside our sister company, leading finance broker MAF Finance Group, we can assist you in achieving your decarbonisation goals through alternative funding options and cost management strategies.

Our team has experience in managing projects for decarbonisation plans across large-scale public sector organisations and uses their expertise to find ways to improve your energy efficiency. We can also implement carbon reduction strategies like replacing fossil-fuel heating systems with renewable energy sources.
LCSF & Public Sector Decarbonsiation Scheme Applications
Our Building Consultants can support your applications for funding from the Salix Low Carbon Skills Fund (LCSF) and the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS). These schemes provide grants to public sector bodies to fund accessing skills and expertise to decarbonise their estates.
Our track record of winning bids on behalf of our clients means you can rely on us to support your funding applications and manage the decarbonisation project once it has been approved.

We can also manage stakeholder involvement and provide expert advice from initial design to project completion.
The Eddisons decarbonisation experts understand how important it is to minimise site disruption and uphold regulatory standards while maximising budget efficiency. Contact us to learn how we can assist you too.
M+E Surveys and Thermal Efficiency
Our RICS-accredited Surveyors can conduct Mechanical and Electrical Validation (M&E) Surveys. If you have secured decarbonisation funding and want to complete a new project on your building, we can ensure risk is effectively monitored by completing an M&E Survey. These measure the buildings’ physical condition, compliance and capacity through examining mechanical and electrical systems.
We can also complete a thermal efficiency survey to maximise your property’s energy efficiency and improve insulation performance. This can help carbon reduction strategies by reducing energy emissions, which may also lower your energy costs.
Alternative Funding Reports
Through MAF Finance Group, we can help you source alternative funding that lets you achieve your decarbonisation targets. MAF works with many finance providers and can help you select the best option for your requirements.
Heat Network Studies, Project Management and Funding Applications
The Heat Network Efficiency Scheme (HNES) is a government-funded scheme to support improvements in the public, private and third sectors across England and Wales.
Our RICS-qualified surveyors can complete HNES and optimisation studies to identify areas to improve heat network performance and recommend improvements. We can then use these appraisals to demonstrate eligibility for HNES funding applications.
Retrofit Applications
Our retrofit services include applications for funding to introduce new materials, products and technologies to increase energy efficiency in your building. According to the Government's Net Zero Carbon Strategy and Build Back Greener initiative, they have set a target of retrofitting 1.5 homes per minute until 2050 through a fabric-first approach.
Multiple retrofit funding schemes are available, including the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund and Green Homes Grant Local Authority Delivery scheme. Get in touch to learn more about how we can assist you.
Passivhaus Design and Construction
Passivhaus, meaning passive hause in English, is a concept in architecture relating to buildings that retain such high energy efficiency that they remain at a consistent temperature. The term originated in Germany as part of their sustainability principles based on research into why buildings do not reach maximum energy-saving potential.
Our team can help work with you on Passivhaus developments to reduce costs and work towards decarbonisation in Net Zero.
Net Zero Policy and Planning
Our sustainability experts can work with you across varied scales of construction projects, increasing energy efficiency and the decarbonisation of your buildings through successful funding applications. Your Net Zero targets should be reached by 2050 and we can help you achieve this through project coordination, planning and application management.
