Fund projects that help make Suffolk safer, cleaner and more sustainable.
Funding projects to create a greener county
Suffolk County Council is committed to increasing renewable energy generation at its corporate offices, fire stations, libraries, and locations where it delivers key public services.
The money invested in the first phase of the Sustainable Suffolk Investment will be used to install energy-efficient upgrades at such council-owned sites to lower carbon emissions from utilities.. These are expected to include installation of solar panels and efficient electric heating systems such as heat pumps. The projects are being delivered as part of Suffolk County Council's Climate Emergency Capital Programme and are scheduled to be delivered between April 2026 and March 2027.
All investments from Suffolk County Council are compliant with the Green Loan Principles - internationally recognised standards that are also used by the UK Government for its green investments products. They require that the money invested can only be used to fund eligible green projects.
