Architecture & Planning - Barnoldswick, England, United Kingdom
The Association for Environment Conscious Building (AECB) is the UK's longest established not-for-profit independent network of sustainable building professionals, tradespeople and self-builders. Founded in 1989, membership includes local authorities, housing associations, builders, architects, designers, consultants, manufacturers and self-builders.AECB champions the acceleration of the UK towards Net Zero carbon by 2050. The climate emergency is being caused by greenhouse gases being released into the atmosphere. We emit huge amounts of carbon dioxide by lighting, appliances, space and water heating in our homes. Of all the emissions that come from UK buildings, 69% come from the domestic stock which is responsible for 18% of our annual national emissions. 80% of the domestic stock that will exist in 2050 already exists today.At COP26 the AECB supported the signing of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE)'s High-Performance Buildings Initiative. This sets up a global network of 26 international Centres of Excellence of High-Performance Buildings to provide education, training, and resources supporting local industry in the rapid development of buildings consistent with the UN Framework for energy efficiency standards in buildings.AECB specialises in:• Running advanced online retrofit training: The e-learning CarbonLite™ Retrofit course. • Collaborating with academic institutions: The CPD Cert. Building Energy Using PHPP with TU Dublin course. • Generating guidance and standards for professionals and self-builders Including the AECB Retrofit Standard being adopted by a UK building society.• Sales of advanced PPPH software for architects and designers.• Advising government including supporting the UK Heat and building strategy (October 2021) that is: ‘putting consumers at the heart of our action to transform our buildings."
