Reducing Our Carbon Footprint

We are leading the way with our Viking Energy Network at Jarrow.

This UK-first is a renewable system that harnesses heat from the River Tyne exporting it to council-owned buildings including Jarrow Focus, residential tower blocks, Jarrow Business Centre and Jarrow Town Hall.

The network will cut annual carbon emissions by 1,035 tonnes, demonstrating our commitment to be net zero by 2030.
