npower Climate cops

Inspiring children to do their bit for the environment

The npower Climate Cops programme helps schools across the UK to become greener and more sustainable and shows young people how they can take a lead in being greener at home and school through interactive and engaging activity events, websites and free teaching resources. It follows the Government’s National Framework for Sustainable schools by focusing on the Child, Curriculum, Campus and Community.

Our programme empowers young people to share their green knowledge and ideas with family, friends and their wider community. Our employees also participate in our npower Climate Cops programme as volunteers, developing and share their knowledge and skills with young people.

View our film to see what the children get up to.

School Energy Audits

Selected schools receive a free energy audit, carried out by independent auditors who provide energy saving recommendations and advise on how the schools can lower their energy usage/cost and carbon emissions.

We work in partnership with local authorities to agree which energy saving measures we fund.

npower Climate Cops SOS

There are many ways that we can all live more sustainably and we all have a role to play if we are going to help to tackle the causes of climate change.

Our npower Climate Cops SOS programme is an annual competition for teams of 11-12 year olds. By improving their local environment (a ‘Climate Cops SOS’), they could be selected as one of our 100 ‘greenagers’ and win an amazing prize for themselves.
