Amid growing awareness of the importance of sustainable operations, the iconic Leeds Castle estate appointed Ingleton Wood to conduct a comprehensive energy audit and develop a robust energy reduction strategy to support the Castle’s sustainability and energy reduction ambitions.
Ingleton Wood conducted a comprehensive energy audit to assess the Castle’s current energy consumption and identify impactful, feasible, and financially viable opportunities to reduce the site's energy consumption.
Findings from the audit then aided the Ingleton Wood team in guiding the Castle on how to implement practical and sustainable energy reduction measures.
Ingleton Wood’s proposed energy-reduction initiatives were tailored not only to reduce the estate's energy consumption, but also to align with the Castle’s long-term commitment to preserving its historical and environmental legacy, while optimising its energy usage.
