Date

7 November 2022


Plymouth Marjon University has been shortlisted for a prestigious ‘Climate Action’ Green Gown Award.

The award recognises sustainability projects being carried out by universities and colleges in the UK and Ireland.

Marjon has been singled out for its Marjon Zero project, a £5.3 million initiative which has seen the installation of around 2,000 solar panels and one of the largest non-domestic Ground Source Heat Pump projects in England. These activities will drive the University forward towards its 2030 carbon neutrality goal.

The awards take place on Tuesday 8 November at Loughborough University, where Marjon will be in attendance alongside six other higher education institutions, including DeMontfort University, King’s College London, and the University of the West of England, Bristol.
