Unlike the commercial sector, the Royal Navy are both owners and operators of both their ships AND ports, and therefore have an opportunity to deliver a coherent approach to tackling these challenges. Portsmouth, together with the other 2 UK Naval Bases in Plymouth and Scotland, are the largest consumers of energy in defence with highly similar outputs and therefore in a unique position to deliver the greatest benefits. The paper with outline the existing approach to new ship programmes together with how their support base is being adapted. It will look ahead to the changing operational demands and predictions of how the National energy provision could be derived in the future. Constraints will be discussed, be they technical, fiscal, or societal, so that the real challenges are identified and options to address them developed. It will signpost to opportunities for closer collaboration with industry, local authorities and academia. It will also note the role of Central and other government departments in encouraging the necessary approaches and a potential for international engagement. An argument for addressing the range of issues will be matured into an example of a holistic solution for a complex military dockyard. The expected findings of the paper will describe how an organisation’s investment approval process should acknowledge the cost of carbon reduction, rather than just the fiscal advantages. Individual options will be critiqued, identifying the benefits and limitations. These will be combined into an indicative overall solution suite that, with the right motivations and what an organisation chooses to value, could be delivered as a coherent decarbonisation programme.
