£24m to be invested in Scots hospital energy efficiency

The Scottish Government plans to spend £24 million to make NHS hospital and facilities in Scotland more energy efficient.
The money will be invested over the next three years in projects aimed at reducing greenhouse gases across NHS Scotland by around 10 per cent. It will be awarded to green projects which can substantially reduce carbon emissions.

According to The Scotsman, projects include the installation of a biomass boiler at Raigmore Hospital in Inverness, converting the heating system at Glasgow's Gartnavel Royal Hospital from oil to gas and the installation of wind turbines to support remote health centres in the Shetland Islands.

Health Secretary Alex Neil said: 'The £4 million that will be saved each year through this scheme will be reinvested directly into frontline patient care, ensuring patients across Scotland continue to receive the best possible care and treatment.'
