They’re familiar with manufacturing processes and, in some cases, are already supplying other industries and familiar with other mindsets and cultures.

Achieving net zero by 2050.It’s also important to remember that the challenge of turning the climate crisis around rests solely on the shoulders of our working generation.

Although future timescales can sometimes feel abstract, 2050 really isn’t far away and our net zero deadline is looming.In fact, half of the emissions in the atmosphere today were emitted in the last thirty years, so we’re going to have to think really expansively on the issue.One of the greatest challenges we have is finance, because there’s still a lot of prejudice against nuclear power in the finance market.

The World Bank, for example, won’t finance nuclear projects.In addition, despite the fact that all of the science repeatedly tells us that nuclear is the lowest carbon, clean energy source available, the European sustainable finance taxonomy has remained in a state of consideration for years about whether nuclear energy actually qualifies as green..

Still, despite the challenges ahead, it’s clear to see that the tide is turning and, of course, urgency related to the climate crisis will only continue to increase.

We must be ready to act and put the right strategies into place globally: licensing, siting, public acceptability, supply chain strategies etc.LETI has been working in collaboration with other bodies and industry groups to resolve these inconsistencies and have published the ‘Embodied carbon target alignment document’.. Based on this document and the comparison of the current targets defined by LETI, RIBA and GLA, an average performance for non-domestic commercial building performance (A-C) would be to achieve an embodied carbon around 1400kgCO.

/m², good practice would be below 970kgCO.and best practice below 550kgCO.

This lower threshold is only achievable by refurbished buildings and timber structures that account for carbon sequestration and design with ambitious low carbon specifications.. Bryden Wood aspires to design new buildings that achieve at least the good practice thresholds shown in Figure 4 and where feasible deliver best practice performance.In order to be able to meet these aspirations, it is necessary to develop a clear strategy for both embodied and operational carbon..
