Provide Recommendation Reports in various formats (e.g., PDF, Word, and Excel) including a prioritised plan of action and basis for investment to reduce carbon emissions, reduce energy, achieve cost savings with options ranging from zero and low-cost opportunities to those that require capital investment. Net Zero Carbon (NZC) Action Plans will: - help the individual churches and church halls identify areas for improvement and outline associated costs, - support the dioceses (I.e., regions) where the church/hall is located with their diocesan NZC action plans, and - help inform the Church of England's overall national work towards Net Zero Carbon by 2030. ### Scope In Scope: • Review of 1,600 Churches and church halls in England by the end of 2025 with the potential to extend the programme beyond this as part of the Archbishops' Council's Triennium Funding. Out of Scope: • Cathedrals. A separate project has created action plans for every cathedral. • Schools. • Clergy Housing. A separate project is surveying our housing stock. • Embodied carbon is not in scope of our target to be net zero carbon by 2030, however we do want all recommendations to be mindful of embodied carbon, where relevant, to assist decision making.
