Sustainability commitment and Climate Action Plan

SRUC sustainability strategy includes solar PV as priority intervention across the multi-campus rural estate. Scottish Government Net Zero 2045 framework. SFC Climate Emergency Fund accessible.

Solar opportunity assessment

Multi-campus specialist land-based provision with substantial agricultural estate at every campus. Aberdeen and Ayr campuses have particularly strong solar resource. Estimated 1.5-2.5 MW PV potential including agricultural buildings and ground-mount.

Total available roof area across the portfolio: 20,000+ sqm + significant ground-mount potential. At a typical 75% utilisation rate (after exclusions for plant, rooflights, shading, wayleaves), this gives a portfolio PV ceiling consistent with the estimated capacity above.
