The organisation works with its lenders / investors to develop plans for reducing carbon emissions, supported by funding at reduced rates linked to the achievement of environmental goals.  Working with other housing associations, it seeks to progressively improve the measurement of these emissions, in order to refine decision making around the balance between investing in new and existing homes.  The organisation also engages with residents and key suppliers over its plans, to ensure that skills and components are available when needed and that residents can take advantage of their improved homes to keep warm and keep costs down.
