“Construction has a significant impact on the environment: over 40% of material resources used, waste produced and energy consumed is construction related.”

There is an increasing need to address the issue of fuel poverty, particularly in rural areas. Energy efficiency and water conservation have to be targeted to reducing potentially high running costs for tenants and occupiers. 

We recognise that close liaison and product development with a local supply chain is the key to achieving high standards. Examples of Renewables incorporated in our schemes include:-

• Air to Water Heat Pumps

• Extract Fans with Heat Exchangers

• Ground Source Heat Pumps

• Solar Panels

• Wind Turbines

• Photovoltaic's

• District Heating / Biomass

Randall Simmonds LLP are now working with committed clients to move beyond the current Code requirements to adopt ‘Passivhaus’ and ‘Carbonlite’ construction standards, contributing towards the building of a strategy to achieve a zero carbon foot print. These projects currently at scheme design stage.
