Decision details
Decarbonisation of heating system at Keynsham Civic Centre
Decision Maker: Executive Director - Sustainable Communities
Decision status: Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Purpose:
To replace the gas heating boiler at Keynsham
Civic Centre with an air source heat pump, largely funded by a
Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS) grant.
Decision:
To approve the total capital of £270k,
which includes a council match contribution of £24k
Alternative options considered:
Replacement of the gas boiler with the same
type would not achieve the decarbonisation of the heating system,
losing the carbon reduction benefit. It would not qualify for the
PSDS grant, so the council would bear the full cost.
