Description
This BRE Trust report considers the relative impact on UK CO2 savings targets of constructing new zero-carbon buildings compared to improving the energy efficiency of the existing stock. Carbon dioxide emissions from buildings accounted for around 40% of total UK CO2 emissions in 2006. To achieve the government’s challenging target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050, improving the energy efficiency of buildings - both new and existing - will clearly be vital. This report uses existing data to explore the extent to which improving the energy efficiency of the existing building stock would be a more cost-effective route for achieving CO2 savings than constructing new buildings to the higher levels of energy performance required to meet low- and zero-carbon targets.
