COMMITMENT TO PASSIVHAUS STANDARD
We're incredibly proud to announce a significant development in sustainable housing as we publicly commit to certifying all new London homes to the rigorous Passivhaus standard!
This is a major leap forward for the mass market and a testament to our ongoing collaboration. Our new Lo-E Homes concept is set to revolutionise urban living by dramatically increasing energy efficiency and reducing residents' heating bills by as much as 60% compared to typical new-build flats.
This commitment means:
Thousands of new, super airtight homes with triple glazing and individual heat pumps that can also cool during heatwaves
Reduced carbon emissions and significantly lower energy use for residents
Passivhaus for the masses, proving that this gold standard in sustainable design can be delivered at scale, including all affordable homes built in the capital
Our West London partnership will see 4,000 homes built over the next ten years, with half being affordable housing. The first of these pioneering Lo-E Homes are planned for our development at Bollo Lane, near Acton Town Tube station, with our proposed development at High Barnet to follow. This is a significant milestone in building future-proof homes that are resilient to changing climates, low cost to run, and truly deliver for Londoners.
