The University has reduced its scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions from a peak of 18,851 in 2012 to a low of 8,997 tonnes in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Emissions have risen back to 10,475 tonnes in 2021. The Wivenhoe Campus was completed in the mid-1960s by Kenneth Capon of the Architects Co-Partnership (ACP). It is a purpose designed university campus designed around five interlinked squares set in a 200-acre parkland to the southeast of Colchester. A key feature of the original architectural narrative of the Colchester campus is the metal framed single pane glass windows and the brutalist architecture. It consists of a reinforced concrete frame which has both precast and in-situ elements. The facades have exposed precast concrete columns and non-structural precast mullions. A significant part of achieving net zero scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions involves building fabric improvements and a priority will be the original 1960's single pane glass windows across much of the Colchester campus. ## CPV classification Windows Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/2eb9694c-b9fc-4f96-a15e-bcaf6164d6ef) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
