The Homebuilding & Renovating show is a great place to visit to get hold of lots of information for your self-build project. From getting free one-to-one advice sessions, to a varied seminar programme to seeing products in the flesh, it can be a highly valuable day out.
Paul spoke about the key initial considerations to ensuring an energy efficient, low carbon and cost effective project. Topics included:
- What performance to aim for (eg. Passivhaus, AECB)
- Form Factor
- Orientation
- Fenestration
- Embodied carbon
- Other ways of reducing demand
Following his seminar, there were lots of requests for Paul’s slides. Click here to download these.
