This week Tim Martel will be talking about the AECB Standards and the Retrofit Step-by-step approach. It can help you decide the route you could go down, and the benefits available. You can still book your place: buff.ly/41xz7Yv

On 15 March Green Building Store's @billbutch & @ChrisHerring164 will join @TimMartelAT for a FREE @AECBnet webinar sharing a comparative PHribbon study looking at the embodied carbon of different building methods for a Passivhaus newbuild. ow.ly/jZPB50HYz55

TODAY @ 2pm GMT/9am ET | Remember to join us for the fifth #BPI Episode 'PHribbon calculates the embodied carbon in a new masonry building', presented by @PHAccelerator, co-hosted by @partelhw, Mike Jacob, @BenAdamSmith, with @TimMartelAT as special guest. bit.ly/3pb6Dls

Made time tonight to watch the intro to @the_phnetwork’s PHribbon you include here. Super exciting to see how this it includes #EC3 database, adds @EPA electric grid factors + structure for full end of life analysis. This is where policymakers need to be heading. (@CalEnergy)

And so pleased that the work on Part Z by Will Arnold, Tim den Dekker, @jannikgiesekam, @julieg and @Simonsturgis underpins it. part-z.uk/

Excellent that @duncancbaker's 10 Minute Rule Motion on Regulating Embodied Carbon was received positively and will have its second reading on Friday 18th March. Well done to all involved. To see the action today, parliamentlive.tv/Event/Inde… from 16:27:20 onward.

🙂 If we have that EU-label of nat.gas = sustainable you shouldn't be surprised to see such advertisement all over Europe. That is, why this is not responsible: @BMWK

No rest yet in 2022! Join myself & @TimMartelAT with the @the_phnetwork team for their symposium Jan26-27 on regenerative construction I’m presenting some of the lowest whole life carbon buildings in the UK #BuildBackBetter @ArchitypeUK @the_iPHA @PassiveHouseBB @PassivhausTrust

Going by the numbers in here, if you switch from gas to heat pump in the Netherlands, you might slash your heating bills by about 2/3rds! In most European countries heat pumps will save households money, but in UK and a few others, it will cost more.

“There is no non-radical alternative. Either we have to deal with 3-5 degree of warming this century, which means chaotic radical change. Or we reduce emissions so rapidly, that this also means radical change, but only for 10-30% of the population.”

Inconvenient truths here from Professor Kevin Anderson:
“Equity is locked into the #ParisAgreement. And it means that the wealthy parts of the world have about 6-9 years at current emissions left until we blow our budget for 2°C. That requires zero carbon by 2035.”

When we are.
This should probably be painted on the side of every executive mansion and parliamentary hall in the world.

Another thing we love about this project: @PYCgroup were so confident in the passive house standard they decided to forego a central heating system. There's also some nice embodied CO2 calculations in here by @TimMartelAT.

This Bristol #passivehouse 'plus' is featured in our new issue, with an in-depth article by @Kate_de and a breakdown of its embodied carbon by @TimMartelAT.

A really #UsefulPodcasts about #EmbodiedCarbon: @Houseplanhelp No 283 with @TimMartelAT. Tim not only explains this #UpFrontCarbon addition to #PHPP modelling software but also the usefulness of #EPD for #WholeLifeCarbon assessment

Particularly excited about the joint @AECBnet @PassivhausTrust @TimMartelAT housing stock modelling that we hope will better inform the roles of different retrofit & new-build standards & approaches
