GHA Site visit # 3
30-9-2008 13.00-17.30
OneBrighton, BioRegional Quintain, and Ifold, Chalk-hill

One Brighton has been designed to be Zero Carbon through a combination of good thermal design and on- and off-site renewable generation technologies; including a central biomass boiler to provide space heating and hot water, on-site photovoltaic panels and electricity from new capacity REGO-certified sources. The energy demand has also been reduced with a very highly thermally efficient building envelope, energy efficient lights, fittings and appliances.

We also will visit a project developed by Chalk Hill, which was founded in 2004 for one reason: to offer families a genuinely different choice of homes where environmental concerns are a priority form the offset. With triple glazing, MVHR, underfloor zoned heating and GSH pump, the homes offer quality low carbon living.
