With the growing urgency to measure carbon emissions from building and create warmer, drier, healthier homes, how can evaluation tools help? A Building Research Levy-funded project has been asking industry.
We finish this 2-part series looking at the rest of the BRANZ modelling study used to develop six rules of thumb that will help designers deliver lower-carbon houses.
The use of solar photovoltaic systems could contribute significantly to achieving the high-performing buildings we aim for while reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reducing power bills.
BRANZ’s Transition to a zero-carbon built environment programme will continue forging partnerships in 2022 to advance knowledge and help deliver the low-carbon buildings that climate change demands.
This is the first of a two-part series on the considerable impact building materials have on greenhouse gas emissions and what we can do to change this. With New Zealand moving to a zero-carbon economy by 2050, we begin with the present carbon footprint of standalone homes.
New Zealand's shift to a net-zero carbon economy will place big demands on our building and construction industry to deliver low-carbon buildings. A BRANZ project is researching how best to assist the industry to make the transition.
