Overview
The Common Services Agency (more commonly known as National Services Scotland) (NSS) are acting on behalf of NHS Grampian, seeking expressions of interest from parties capable of assisting in the achievement of carbon reduction goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from our buildings by at least 75% by 2030 compared to a 1990 baseline and using renewable heating systems by 2038 for all NHS-owned buildings, and for all our estate to have net-zero emissions by 2040 or earlier where possible.
