4 June: Housing Development Workshop (Net Zero)
The Northern Housing Consortium, in partnership with Campbell Tickell, is running a series of housing development workshops focussing on various themes in relation to our member’s housebuilding ambitions, the challenges faced in delivering on those goals, and the wider context of the government’s housing and planning agenda.
The government has a goal to build 1.5 million homes by the end of this parliament. Within this, councils are being given new housebuilding targets under new planning rules aimed at building 370,000 homes a year.
This session will look at the various aspects when it comes to considering Net Zero aims in housebuilding, from construction to neighbourhood design. This can include things like the utilisation and inclusion of green spaces in design, the use of new building technologies to improve net zero standards whilst saving money for customers and fitting in with the local historic natural environment.
Speakers
- Steve Alcock, Torus, Director of Development & Technical, Torus – Steve will bring his perspective as a Housing Association director to discuss his work at Torus in including net zero standards in their housebuilding work. Torus has a strong track record in this area and Steve will provide his insight into how they have been so successful.
