The BRE Innovation Park: Some Lessons Learnt from the Demonstration Buildings
The BRE Innovation Park features a number of demonstration buildings that have been built to the UK Government’s Code for Sustainable Homes, which showcase the very latest innovative methods of construction, and cutting edge technology. This chapter explains the key features of these demonstration buildings, and provides some key lessons learnt from four of the demonstration homes on its performance in relation to the ‘building fabric’ and the ‘energy strategy’ for the building. Learning Scope: On successful completion of this chapter, readers will be able to (1) understand the different building innovations and technologies that are setting the benchmark for sustainability in the UK; (2) understand the government’s Code for Sustainable Homes which is the new standard for all new build homes in the UK; and (3) learn some of the key lessons from the demonstration homes on their approach to the building fabric and energy strategy.
