An in-depth look at the innovative approach to green investment taken by Warrington Borough Council
The officers and councillors at Warrington Borough Council have gained a well-deserved reputation over recent years for taking an innovative approach to investment which addresses sustainability.
By highlighting local priorities including the need to make a water tight financial business case to support council services into the future, the Council has invested in assets which others may not have considered. Solar on buildings which the Council does not own, the purchase of a bank, investment in an energy company and investment in solar farms in Yorkshire are some of the examples. Having some successful schemes already under their belt, the Council is pursuing further exciting projects which are UK firsts in the public sector
