Sarah Lewis, Research & Policy Director, Passivhaus TrustJoin Passivhaus Trust Research and Policy Director, Sarah Lewis, for an engaging webinar on net-zero performance and how Passivhaus provides a robust route achieving climate targets in the construction industry.

There is endless talk in the media, construction industry and otherwise about 'net-zero' and 'zero carbon' – as well as a growing aspiration (and eventually a regulatory requirement) to deliver net-zero carbon homes. But what do these terms really mean and what does it mean for designers, developers/suppliers and users in practice? Who is defining these performance criteria, how do we measure them, and prove that the proposed solutions work in live projects?

This event is part of the ‘Delivering Affordable Net-Zero Housing’ series of 8 webinars run in conjunction with the The Green Register and Eastern New Energy project. The series focuses on the nitty gritty details of what is working and what it costs to meet the net-zero challenge.
