Following the Ministry of Justice<\/a> (MoJ)\u2019s announcement in May that all new prisons will be built sustainably, Mace<\/a> is supporting the organisation in introducing energy-saving technology<\/h2>\n

Mace is supporting the MoJ using technology such as solar panels, environmentally-friendly heat pumps<\/a>, and electric car charging points.<\/p>\n

Mace is developing innovative low carbon solutions to work alongside the MoJ and reduce CO2<\/sub> emissions by 280,000 tonnes; cut\u00a0energy costs by \u00a3100m, and deliver safe and secure net-zero carbon prisons.<\/p>\n

Government works towards net-zero by 2050<\/h3>\n

The four new prisons<\/a>\u00a0being built in England will reduce energy demand by half and cut carbon emissions by at least 85% compared to other prisons under construction.<\/p>\n

During construction, 40,000 tonnes of carbon emissions will be prevented by using recycled concrete and steel.<\/p>\n

Existing prisons are also benefiting from a \u00a315m investment to cut their emissions. Mace is managing the installation of solar panels at a further 16 sites, bringing the total number of solar panels across the estate to over 20,000.<\/p>\n

More than 200 electric vehicle charging points are also being installed across 40 prisons.<\/p>\n

The project win follows Mace\u2019s announcement of its net-zero carbon status in December 2020.<\/p>\n

As part of Mace\u2019s 2026 business strategy<\/a>, the company is further reducing its carbon emissions by 10% year on year and has pledged to reduce client carbon emissions by 1 million tonnes by 2026.<\/p>\n

Alfie Heyland, justice and blue light sector director at Mace, said: \u201cWe are delighted deliver innovative low carbon solutions for the MoJ\u2019s new prisons programme.<\/p>\n

\u201cReducing carbon emissions is the great challenge of our generation and we are proud to be part of the MoJ\u2019s decarbonisation ambition<\/a>, making a positive impact on the environment and local communities in the UK.\u201d<\/p>\n
