The term renewable energy refers only to electricity, which is shown as a percentage of the total electricity used in the following table. During the last year the proportion of renewable energy procured decreased due to increasing demand across the energy sector.

The Department will continue to work, in conjunction with its estates partners and other key stakeholders, to reduce its energy consumption and achieve its carbon budget. It will continue to source renewable energy as part of the pan-government energy procurement contracts which currently require 10 per cent. of energy from renewable sources coupled with 15 per cent. of energy from good quality combined heat and power.
