It is the same commitment to work alongside industry that has seen success for Burnley College’s award-winning Low Carbon Hub. Employers from across the region have been flocking to the Hub to upskill their workforces in the latest green technologies to keep their businesses ahead of the curve, as well as discovering how they can save money – as well as the planet – by harnessing the power of industry-leading data and energy use analysis tools. Initially funded through the Government’s Strategic Development Fund, the Low Carbon Hub showcases the very latest technologies for solar and wind power, as well as training suites for electricians and plumbers in electric vehicle charging and heating solutions. Neil Burrows, Director of Skills and Innovation at Burnley College, says aiming for a low- carbon future is essential: “The green agenda is here to stay, rightly so, and we all have a duty to play our part in preserving our planet’s natural resources for future generation. “As a College, we’re committed to creating a sustainable future and are constantly making progress towards that goal by increasing the number of solar panels on our rooftops; harvesting rainwater; recycling; rewilding our campus and constructing eco-friendly buildings as we grow.
