The Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS) is a government grant program designed to support public sector bodies, including schools, in implementing energy efficiency and heat decarbonisation measures. The scheme aims to reduce carbon emissions from public sector buildings while enhancing cost-effectiveness.

PSDS offers a golden opportunity for schools to embrace energy efficiency and contribute to a sustainable future. We have a proven track record in assisting successful applications and are pleased to offer property advice to clients across the education sector.

What Can the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme Be Used For?

With the scheme being designed to fund energy efficiency improvements or heat decarbonisation, some of the ways it can be used include the following:

• Transitioning from fossil fuel-based heating systems to eco-conscious alternatives like heat pumps or solar panels
• Sustainable upgrades such as installing insulation, draught-proofing and adding environmentally friendly lighting

“The Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme offers schools and academies vital funding to enhance energy efficiency, cut costs and reduce carbon emissions, supporting sustainable learning environments while contributing to the UK’s net-zero goals.”

Ian Harrington, Regional Managing Partner (North)
