Reading the table
- £ awarded is the Salix grant value as published by DESNZ. Phase 4 required a minimum 12% applicant contribution for the like-for-like counterfactual, so the project total is higher than the grant.
- Sites covered is the number of buildings or schools in the award, where the DESNZ summary states it.
- Primary measure lists the headline measure. Heat pumps dominate Phase 4 education awards; larger campuses used heat networks or geothermal.
- The list is a representative sample, not the full award list. See the complete DESNZ project summaries for every funded project.
Modelling your own bid
Find the award closest to your estate size and measure mix as a sanity-check, then use the grant-size estimator to model your own £/tCO2e from your specific kWh and GIFA inputs, and check it against the £510/tCO2e Phase 4 ceiling.
