Scottish Councils and NHS Boards League Tables

What's your local Council and NHS Board doing?

Councils and NHS Scotland have so much to gain from renewables. The annual league table will become one of the main projects of this website.

To help people better understand what their Councils and NHS Boards are doing to participate in the energy transition we've issued Freedom of Information requests to all 32 Councils and 14 NHS Boards in Scotland. In particular we will be looking at how much renewable electricity or revenue they generate from their properties.

We'll do this every year and construct a league table to figure out who's doing what.

While we're waiting for replies, here's a list of all 32 councils in Scotland with their (approx) populations. We look forward to adding more information soon.
