In this episode Construction Partner David Savage, is joined by Julie Godefroy Head of Net Zero Policy at The Chartered Institute of Building Service Engineers (CIBSE) to discuss the forthcoming UK Net Zero Carbon Building Standard, a cross-industry initiative that will bring together Net-Zero Carbon requirements for all major building types. Julie is one of the architects and technical experts behind the Net Zero Building Standard and gives us an insight into where the initiative came from and what it is intended to achieve. They discuss practical steps that the real estate sector can do to prepare for the transition, and they take a closer look how the standard will deal with the topical question of retrofitting vs. building new. Finally, they also shed light on how a mindset-change will help to achieve the embodied and operational carbon savings envisaged by the new standard.
For consumers, and for many businesses, the road to Net Zero is simple: replace fossil fuels with electricity, source the electricity from renewable sources, and use it as efficiently as possible, But this isn't a road every business can follow. Some have energy requirements so intense, that they cannot be easily powered from the grid....

Right now, we're investing billions of dollars into charging infrastructure in order to speed up the transition to electric cars and decarbonize transportation. But there are all sorts of problems that EVs won't solve: bumper-to-bumper traffic, extractive metal mining, and car collisions that kill tens of thousands of drivers, passengers, cyclists, and pedestrians every year in the US. That's why transit activists say we need to rethink the way we get around. Because learning to drive less isn't just about safer streets and better quality of life – it's also key to winning the race to net zero.
