Edinburgh Napier University Environmental Sustainability

This , we’re proud to share that our energy use is down across Edinburgh Napier University. From August to April, electricity fell by 3% and gas by 14.5% compared to last year!

Even more impressively, April 2025 alone saw a massive 81% drop in gas usage compared to April 2024.

A big thank you to our Asset Management Team for their initiatives, and to all students and staff whose everyday actions have contributed to these results. From switching off unused lights to using campus spaces more efficiently,

☕💚 We've seen a 33% increase in reusable cup usage across our campuses so far this academic year compared to last year – and it's all thanks to you!

By choosing reusables, you're helping reduce waste, cut carbon emissions, and protect the environment.
