Including 9 closely related terms such as carbon budgets, carbon budget, and carbon build.
… Executive Summary An evidence base for net zero operational carbon buildings The purpose of this report is to provide a technical evidence base to support the energy performance requirements of a high-rise block for Bristol City Council. The report should be read in conjunction with the technical evidence base for new housing, prepared for Cornwall Council in June 2021. It assumes that similarly…
… homes for a construction cost between 2.4-3.0% more than a home that is compliant with Part L 2021. Cost differences are expected to decrease over time as experience and markets for low carbon buildings grow. • Electricity use calculated by energy modelling relates well to metered electricity use data, supporting the use of total energy use targets. Total energy use targets from RIBA, UKGBC…
… and Cornwall Council’s DPD are converging at different rates. Evidence supports early adoption of targets to avoid costly retrofit and remain within carbon budgets. 2021440| Bristol High rise energy modelling | Jan 23 | Rev D 2…
… for new dwellings. A supporting technical study undertaken by Currie & Brown and AECOM confirms that a switch to low carbon heating is essential in achieving long term carbon savings, but that this must be supported by significant improvements in energy efficiency in order to manage running costs and avoid external costs to the wider energy system (e.g. electricity infrastructure). The study…
