Zero Carbon London
→ 800 homes on 26 small sites
→ Aspiring to meet UKGBC’s Net-Zero Carbon Framework
→ 100% renewable electricity to all homes for sale
Brick By Brick and Common Ground Architecture are working to establish a programme of incremental change towards carbon zero across their development portfolio. The 2019 programme is the first step and will create nearly 800 homes on 26 small, challenging sites in Croydon. Measures will be taken to meet the UKGBC’s Net-Zero Carbon Framework Definition at the point of handover, with residents supported on the zero-carbon journey in occupancy. All homes will be extremely energy efficient. Precise space heating targets are under review but will be towards LETI standards, to be achieved through a combination of measures due to the compact nature of the sites.
