The Crown Estate announces sector-specific decarbonisation plans

The Crown Estate has updated its net zero strategy and laid out decarbonisation plans for each of its sectors of operation – buildings, land use, marine aggregates and renewable energy.

The land owner, which manages a £16 billion portfolio of land property and seabed across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, has also shared an updated carbon footprint of just over 1.5 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent for 2024-2025, slightly up from the previous period.
