Sustainability

For example, these early plans have adopted Passivhaus design principles from the outset to increase energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions.

We are also targeting:

Industry leading sustainability standards including BREEAM Excellent for commercial elements and Home Quality Mark 4.5 stars for homes.

An all electric heating system reducing use of fossil fuels onsite.

A Biodiversity Net Gain uplift of at least 10% improving the natural habitats for wildlife on the site.

An Urban Greening Factor of 0.4, increasing the quantum of trees, soft landscaping and sustainable drainage across the site.

A reduction in vehicle movements and an improvement in local air quality.

Bio-solar roofs to buildings balancing green energy production with an increase in biodiversity.
