How could we use digitalization to enable a climate neutral construction industry?
The construction industry are responsible for 39% of global energy-related carbon emissions and therefore has a great responsibility to limit them.
World Green Building Council, the network of Green Building Councils partners, will dedicate this year’s World Green Building Week (September 21-25) to urge, among others, the building sector and governments to take action to deliver net zero buildings.
To select the right design and material and to use renewable energy is one of the main keys to limit the carbon emissions.
White Arkitekter, has expressed it in a simple and thoughtful way:
”Through wise design and material choices, we can create efficient buildings with low energy use, where the energy needed is supplied from renewable energy sources. Energy demand can be reduced by optimizing the building volume and orientation, through careful design of the building envelope and by specifying energy-efficient building services and controls.”
