GRANT backs low carbon teaching in lanarkshire

Grant has backed South Lanarkshire College’s Low Carbon Initiative, by providing green energy saving products to assist student learning.   The Scottish training establishment’s offers many renewable energy courses for those wishing to improve their knowledge and qualifications,  and has just completed the construction of its own low carbon house which should make learning both more fun and interactive.      The building incorporates rainwater harvesting, a heat pump and triple glazing, as well as a Grant Solar Thermal and Solar PV system.  It will be used to demonstrate to students and apprentices a number of green options available to help achieve Code Level 5 building.    Anna Wakefield, Marketing Manager for Grant UK commented: 'Our view is that commitment to green training is a commitment to the future. It is so important to invest in these types of initiative at present, as it helps to generate awareness of sustainable technology, allows installers to stay one step ahead of legislation and inevitably continues to grow the renewable market'.
