Massive wind turbines, all the way through to the PV panels on individual homes; all of these elements contribute to the electricity carbon factor and will play an important role in creating a more sustainable future.. Net zero by 2050.It’s true that not every building is going to be net zero at the moment.
We’re designing with the government’s 2050 net-zero carbon objective in mind, and we’re on track to meet that goal.We’re designing to maximise use of the decarbonised grid.The foundation of our approach to sustainability is based on using lean, passive design methods.
It’s only after passive design strategies are considered that we look at efficient equipment selections, renewable technology and low/zero carbon technology.In other words, when we look towards sustainable design, the focus on sustainable architecture must come before the focus on sustainable services..
Operational carbon - industry benchmarks.
The second part of the net-zero carbon equation is the operational carbon, for which there are currently fewer benchmarks.While there, he engaged Bryden Wood and together they developed the Front End Factory, a collaborative endeavour to explore how to turn purpose and strategy into the right projects – which paved the way for Design to Value.
He is committed to the betterment of lives through individual and collective endeavours..
