PLP TOTAL TCO₂ OFFSET
In addition to our efforts to reduce carbon during construction and in operational energy, we purchase high-quality carbon offsets to achieve carbon net zero construction at practical completion in accordance with the UKGBC Framework.
We partner with the following projects in order to deliver on our carbon offset goals, meanwhile benefitting local communities. They span health and livelihoods, clean cooking, sustainable infrastructure and renewable energy, and meet standards such as CDM and Gold Standard.
