New Communities Group Webinar
It is hard to overemphasise the degree to which climate change affects every aspect of planning for new and renewed places. Large-scale new communities offer a unique opportunity to deliver net-zero (i.e. net-zero greenhouse gas emissions) or energy positive development, and they must cope with the impacts of changes to the global climate that have already been set in motion, including increased risk of flooding and overheating.
As part of the TCPA New Communities Group series, this webinar will explore how to plan for renewable energy in large-scale new communities, and outline how they can be in line with the UK’s carbon dioxide emissions targets. We will hear from experts in the private, public and community energy sector.
