For NHS Staff: NHS Carbon Reduction Plan (CRP) and Net Zero Commitment (NZC) Requirements Webinar

If you are a supplier, please do not book onto this webinar. We offer webinars for suppliers which you can find here: NHS England Events

Are you an NHS colleague who wants to learn more about Carbon Reduction Plans (CRPs) and Net Zero Commitments (NZCs) (the April 2023 and 2024 Net Zero Supplier Roadmap milestones) within the procurement process?

From April 2023, for all new contracts above £5 million per annum, the NHS will require suppliers to publish a carbon reduction plan (CRP) for their UK scope 1 and 2 emissions and a subset of scope 3 emissions as a minimum (aligning with PPN 06/21).

From April 2024, the NHS will proportionately extend the Carbon Reduction Plan requirements to cover all procurements.

• To ensure the CRP requirements are extended in a proportionate and relevant manner to all procurements from 1 April 2024, the policy will be applied in a two-tiered approach. A CRP requirement will be extended to a wider set of procurements and a Net Zero Commitment will be required for lower value procurements.
• The Net Zero Commitment requirements include selected key requirements from the CRP, therefore a CRP-compliant supplier is also compliant with the NHS Net Zero Commitment requirements.

Updated guidance has been published on the application of CRPs and NZCs on the NHS England website.

Join one of our CRP and NZC webinars for NHS colleagues to learn what CRPs and NZCs are, how CRPs/NZCs will be requested and assessed within the procurement process, what support is available to help you apply the requirements and support your suppliers. There will be plenty of time to answer your questions.
