Mitie in action:

80% carbon reduction at University College London Hospital*

*80% reduction based on 2007/2008 baseline for energy, water, waste and soft FM.

Mitie reviewed the entire building portfolio at UCLH. Thanks to the measures we implemented, including decarbonisation of heating, the hospital has reduced carbon emissions by 80% and benefits from the following savings:

LED lighting across the UCLH site saves the Trust £446,000 annually
Installing 452 solar panels has realised savings of £123,000 each year, which can be invested in other sustainability initiatives
Further initiatives across the Trust have seen an 85% reduction in paper and 341,000 fewer pieces of plastic entering landfill
