Historic England awarded a contract to the University of the West of England, Bristol for research to refine and develop carbon reduction scenarios for the built historic environment to meet the UK's net zero carbon targets by 2050.

The research will develop forecasts of the scale of carbon reduction in the built historic environment and the associated abatement costs that can be delivered through retrofit.

It will estimate reductions in operational carbon while acknowledging embodied carbon in existing buildings and consider challenges of achieving net zero without widespread damage to the historic environment and people's health.

The contract value is AUD 24,518.
