Masterplanning for Low Carbon Buildings

我们已经确定了一项独特的研究，需要帮助建筑师，专家，社区和城市规划师，以成本效益的方式实现2016年新开发项目的零碳目标。剩下不到4年的时间，如果我们要集体，影响决策和避免非常昂贵现场和场外“可允许的解决办法”（碳关税）-这反过来又会影响我们经济复苏中发展项目的交付能力。从历史上看，大部分努力都集中在个别建筑物上，我们的目标是将联合收割机的低能耗建筑目标（通过软件工具实现）与考虑到低能耗设计和被动式住宅原则的总体规划布局结合起来。

We have identified a unique piece of research that is needed to help architects, specialists, communities & town-planners in, cost-effectively, meeting the 2016 Zero Carbon target for new developments.With less than 4 years remaining, this research must be concluded immediately if we are to, collectively, influence decision-making and avoid very expensive on-site and off-site “allowable solutions” (Carbon Tariffs) – which, in turn, will impact the deliverability of developments in our recovering economy.Historically, much effort has been focussed on individual buildings, rather than on the way that they are assembled in our cities; master-planning.Our aim is to combine very low building energy targets (enabled with software tools) with masterplanninglayouts that take into account the principles of low energy design and Passivhaus.
