Targeting a low carbon estate.
Sustainability specialists within global professional services consultancy Arup have developed a statistical model based on Carbon Trust-collated data that they believe will enable owners and occupiers of even large estates to identify the most cost-effective means of improving their buildings' sustainability both now and in the future. As senior engineer Thomas Briault explains, the model, developed to address the Climate Change Act's 2050 carbon reduction targets, will even factor in such uncertain aspects as future economic growth.
