Leisure Energy has been appointed as our Net Zero Partner, supporting across the whole estate of operating facilities and contributing to the sustainability and carbon reduction commitments of our local authority partners.

Leisure Energy is the sector-leading energy-saving and renewable technology consultancy, as well as principal contractor, with a track record in delivering significant savings and securing external funding for leisure facilities.

Together with the award-winning consultancy, we will be able to support our local authority partners on applications and project delivery in response to Sport England’s £60 million funding for public leisure facilities with swimming pools, the Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS) funding and similar funding opportunities.

The partnership will encompass an estate-wide approach to review energy reduction and net zero opportunities across all existing facilities. This will lead to a formulated time-phased approach in decarbonising centres in line with the local authorities’ net zero commitments.

We will advise and support local authorities to decarbonise leisure and cultural facilities, from site assessments and funding applications, to detailed design, renewable solutions, construction and management of full project delivery.

Our Group Sustainability Manager, Peggy Lee, said: “This partnership will enable us to provide even stronger support to our local authority partners in achieving their energy reduction ambitions in the short-term and decarbonisation in the longer-term, as well as capturing funding opportunities.

“This is a significant step towards a more sustainable future, not only for our business, but our local authority partners and their communities.”

Leisure Energy’s Strategic Director, Mike W., said: “We’re thrilled to be partnering with Everyone Active to help them and their local authority partners achieve their net zero targets.

“Our mission at Leisure Energy is to lead the transition to net zero facilities and we’re looking forward to putting our experience, expertise and renewable solutions to work to support Everyone Active in achieving this.”
