This series of online tutorials will be of interest to anyone (particularly those in furlough) who wishes to understand why many low-energy eco-homes are far from net-zero. Designers and consultants who need to explain to clients how to achieve a zero-carbon building in practice will benefit.
Limited to 30 people, these tutorials offer a chance to learn directly from, and engage with, expert speakers.
4. Setting the challenge into context
Module 4 examines net zero from the alternative perspective of deriving how much renewable energy might be available for homes in the future to indicate to what level we need to be building and retrofitting to. Then compares this to the volume and type of UK housing stock to describe the scale of the challenge of getting to net zero. Draws all the previous operational net zero modules together to a mid-course conclusion.
