The Sustainability Team is based in Newcastle University Estates and Facilities. We are responsible for a variety of environmental sustainability issues including energy, waste management and travel planning.

We implement and maintain the:

• Environmental Management System
• Energy Management System
• policies relating to sustainability

Our work promotes and demonstrates continuous improvement in environmental and energy performance, ensuring best practice, statutory compliance and value for money.

The Sustainability Team is supported with a budget for Sustainability which includes staff training and expenses, metering and software costs and staff and student engagement funds. In 2021/22 this totalled circa £930k.
