Project VITAL is a combination of sustainability activities at RAF Leeming.
_______________________________________________________________
It is testing a number of different concepts that may support the RAF's Net Zero 2040 goals, while also enabling the Station to be Net Zero by 2025.
The Project aims to create a living laboratory for the RAF and the MOD to investigate new and emerging technologies for tackling climate change and sustainability.
It includes the implementation of integrated solar technology, increasing the use of electric vehicles by providing charging points on the Station, and reducing carbon through measures such as moss walls and soil carbon capture.
Project VITAL’s extensive initiatives are being delivered in collaboration with academics and industry partners such as the University of Newcastle, Element-2, and Fuel Cell Systems.
