Renewable Energy and Enabling Technology Roadmap for Healthcare

This Renewable Energy and Enabling Technologies Roadmap for Healthcare is presented in the form of a practical guide to assist organisations to develop a bespoke renewable energy and enabling technologies and services implementation plan for individual healthcare buildings (that may also be part of a portfolio of assets). This plan – focusing on stationary energy use and supply in healthcare facilities - can be one part of a larger NZCE strategy that would also need to tackleemissions from non-energy sources (e.g. supplies, pharmaceuticals, waste).Healthcare facilities, for the purposes of this report, are defined as hospitals and aged care facilities. The strategies contained in this document could also be adapted to other types of healthcare facilities, such as general practice surgeries, allied health practices, day surgeries, pharmacies, independent living units, etc.The roadmap consists of two parts: establishment of the framework (through which the plan will be actioned), and examination of the energy system options
