🆕 The Future Homes Hub has launched the #WholeLifeCarbon (WLC) Conventions and a free tool to support homebuilders measure the carbon impact of their new homes. Members can download the WLC Conventions and access the Future Homes Carbon Assessment Tool here: https://lnkd.in/e54rda2A Developed with input from #homebuilders, #manufacturers and whole life carbon experts, and in line with wider industry initiatives such as the RICS professional statement, the WLC Conventions will ultimately help all homebuilders consistently measure, share and report whole life carbon assessments. Having a shared approach and developing an industry-wide baseline is a significant step towards developing a clear roadmap to reduce the whole life carbon of new homes. The Future Homes Carbon Assessment Tool covers all building elements but is simple to use and zero cost, encouraging more homebuilders to start their WLC journey. Thank you to the following organisations for helping to develop the Conventions and Tool: AES Sustainability Consultants, Arup, Barratt Developments plc, Bellway Homes, Berkeley Homes, BLP TECHNICAL SERVICES (UK) LTD, BRE, Building Alliance, CG Fry & Son Ltd,Cala Group Limited, Cerclos, Churchill Retirement Living Ltd, Construction Carbon, ConstructionLCA Limited, Crest Nicholson plc, Croudace Homes Limited, Duchy Homes Ltd, Elmhurst Energy, FCB STUDIOS LIMITED, gcp Chartered Architects, H+H UK Limited, Hayfield, Homes England, Ibstock Plc, IStructE London YMG, Jewson/ STARK, Keepmoat, Latimer by Clarion Housing Group), Lendlease, Lifestyle Sustainability, Miller Homes Ltd, Mineral Products Association, NHBC, P+HS Architects, Places for People, Redrow, RICS, Ridge and Partners LLP, Sanctuary, Solar Energy UK, Structural Timber Association Ltd, Story Homes, Taylor Wimpey, Thakeham, Timber Development UK, Travis Perkins, UKGBC, University of Lincoln, Verco, VerdeGO, WSP in the UK, Unilin Insulation - UK & Ireland #wholelifecarbon #buildingregulations #sustainability #sustainabilityconstruction

Introducing the UK's First Fully Solar-Powered Park and Ride Facility in Leeds We're proud to spotlight the Stourton Park and Ride, a pioneering project in sustainable urban transport. This facility sets new standards with its comprehensive use of renewable energy and advanced construction techniques. Key Features: Solar-Powered: The site is equipped with 45 solar canopies that cover an area equivalent to 18 tennis courts, entirely powering the facility. Eco-Friendly Transit: All buses operating from the park and ride are zero-emission, complemented by 30 EV charging stations. Innovative Construction: Combining modular offsite construction with traditional methods, the project features coreten steel cladding that naturally weathers over time, reducing maintenance needs. The park and ride not only supports Leeds City Council’s strategy to reduce city centre traffic but also exemplifies sustainable building practices with features like a green roof to foster biodiversity. Visit our website to learn more about Stourton's approach and how it's shaping the future of public transport infrastructure: https://lnkd.in/emf6yytJ Are you involved in sustainable construction?
