Reducing London’s CO2 Emissions
•
•
•
30% of London’s CO2 emissions
are attributable to
consumption of heat (mostly
mains gas)
Greatest opportunity for CO2
reduction within London is to
reduce demand for heat
through building retrofit and
low carbon, local
(decentralised) heat supply.
Decarbonising electricity
supply is better placed as a
national action (nuclear, wind,
carbon capture and storage)
The London Plan (2011)
The London Plan is the overall strategic plan for London, to which London Boroughs’
local plans need to be in conformity with.
Chapter 5 sets out policies in accordance with
the hierarchy:
In particular:
• Policy 5.2 sets CO2 reduction targets from
energy efficiency interventions for both
residential and non-residential buildings
until 2031 (zero carbon)
• Policy 5.5 sets the policy requirements for
London Boroughs to identify and establish
DE networks, including the development of
Energy Master Plans
• Policy 5.6 sets out the policy
requirements for development
proposal with regards DE

reduction targets
Reductions based on 1990
levels:
o 2015 (interim target) 20%
o 2020 (interim target) 40%
o 2025 60%
o 2050 at least 80%
25% from decentralised
energy by 2025

Strategic Development
• Project defined by the Energy Masterplan
• Long-term development plan
• Private leadership requires guaranteed major initial heat
load (note industrial loads unreliable), otherwise:
• Public involvement:
–
–
–
–
–
–
Planning policy
Safeguarding (routes and energy centres)
Heat load guarantee
Public finance (3.5% to 6% IRR)
Public delivery vehicle
Policy delivery (fuel poverty, carbon reductions etc)
• Continue public ownership, refinance or exit to private
sector
Strategic Principles
Energy Principles
– Security of supply
– Sustainability
– Affordability

Conclusions
• Plan big, start small
• Idea to construction three to seven years
• Public leadership
essential - where more • Persevere – many
than two entities are
blind alleys
involved
• Political support
• Senior officers’ agenda
• The Champion
