Salix’s 2025–26 annual report update describes support for 560 Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme projects in delivery or completion. Together, those projects are forecast to save more than 474,000 tonnes of carbon emissions annually.

Project status: Annual delivery report published

What changed

The update spans housing and public estates in England, Scotland and Wales. It reports 21,064 measures installed through Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund Wave 2.1 and 4,035 through Wave 2.2 during the year. These are measures, not a count of separate homes, and the housing delivery figures remain subject to official-statistics revisions. The carbon figure is a forecast rather than verified annual savings already achieved.

Key project takeaways

  • Keep reporting units consistent when comparing measures, properties and completed projects.

  • Use programme delivery evidence to inform business cases while retaining clear forecast and performance distinctions.

Why this matters

Public-estate teams can use the programme’s scale as context for planning their own decarbonisation pipelines. Forecast carbon savings are distinct from measured performance, and any current funding eligibility or application window needs checking separately.
