Full council record

Purpose

The project is to replace the gas heating boiler at Carrswood Day Centre with an air source heat pump, part-funded by a Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS) grant.

Decision

Approve the total capital of £397k, which includes a council match contribution of £24k supporting the grant funding of £76k.

Alternative options considered

Replacement of the gas boiler with the same type would not achieve the decarbonisation of the heating system, losing the carbon reduction benefit. It would not qualify for the PSDS grant, so the council would bear the full cost.
