Planning Policy Position for Net Zero Carbon Homes and Buildings in Greater Essex

It's my belief that it's of paramount importance that we address the carbon emissions associated with buildings in a more thorough and comprehensive way than the current Building Regulations - particularly embodied carbon. The evidence suggest that this is achievable from a financial, legal and technical perspective. I also welcome the possibility of Passivhaus being used as a 'deemed to comply' mechanism for operational carbon - as a Certified Passivhaus Designer. The benefits of this approach are numerous, beyond just the climate emergency - better housing for residents, better quality control, more comfort, resilience etc.
