Supplement maps out routes to zero carbon buildings
A supplement entitled Cost effective routes to carbon reduction is available with this issue of NSC.
Commissioned by the BCSA and Tata Steel, the free supplement explains what the Target Zero study is and encourages readers to fully engage with and visit the website www.targetzero.info, to obtain more in-depth information.
The chapters within the supplement only touch on some of the findings from Target Zero research which has so far resulted in three guidance reports – schools, warehouses and supermarkets – that can be downloaded free of charge from the website.
Two more reports, offices and mixed use, will be available very shortly and readers can pre-register to receive them.
Launched last year, Target Zero provides guidance on the design and construction of sustainable, low and zero carbon buildings in the UK. This free resource provides designers, architects and engineers with the guidance they need to meet the zero carbon emissions target set by government for 2019.
