Isiqephu sama-34: I-FOOTPRINT+ Ekhethekile 3 Nezingxoxo Ezivela Emcimbini

Sikujabulele ukuba nguzakwethu wemidiya e-FOOTPRINT+ obe umcimbi oyimpumelelo kakhulu. Sisenenqwaba yenhlolokhono esizokulethela yona.

Uma ufisa ukuthola izipesheli zangaphambilini ezivela ku-FOOTPRINT+, yiya ku- Okukhethekile 1 futhi Okukhethekile 2.

Ukuze aqale lesi siqephu esikhethekile sesithathu, uSteve Randall ukhulume noJosie Cadwallader-Hughes mayelana nezindlu ze-Zero-Carbon

As Sustainability Director at Iqembu leThakeham, u-Josie Cadwallader-Hughes unomthwalo wemfanelo wokugcina i-Thakeham iphambili, ukwakha ubambiswano nezinhlangano ezivelele ezinomlando omude wokulwela uguquko, kanye nokweluleka ngenani lezinhlelo zemboni ehlukahlukene ezivumela i-zero carbon placemaking.

UJosie ungumqondisi wezokusimama weThakeham Group. Ubeyisikhulumi esiqavile kulo mcimbi. Inkulumo yakhe yayinesihloko Izindlu zikagesi ezingabizi kakhulu. As we are heading for an all-electric, fossil fuel-free future, questions are raised about how energy costs can be managed as we try to find the sweet spot between building fabric, heat pump and heat emitter design efficiency and hot water storage space.

As Sustainability Director at Thakeham Group, Josie Cadwallander-Hughes is responsible for keeping Thakeham at the leading edge by building partnerships with distinguished organisations with a long history of championing change and bringing together stakeholders from Wildlife Trusts to the Plunkett Foundation.

Josie is a finalist for the Sustainability Leader of the Year Award 2022. She advises several cross-industry programmes such as in her role as Interim Head of Zero Carbon Placemaking and Nature at the Future Homes Hub, developing the interface between industry and government to meet ambitious climate goals.

The Thakeham Group believes that climate change is one of the most significant environmental challenges of the 21st century and that we all have a responsibility to act now. Delaying action on climate change will be costly for our natural environment, humans and the economy.

They are taking a highly proactive approach in responding to the climate crisis by setting themselves challenging targets. They believe that urgent action is necessary to curb greenhouse gas emissions.

“The homes that we deliver by 2025 will be zero carbon, none of this tricky transition period”

Okulandelayo, uSteve Randall ukhulume noMartin Hale mayelana nokushaja kwe-EV.

UMartin Hale unguMqondisi Wokuthengisa we Ukushaja okungu-RAW. Ukushaja ugesi kuyisihloko esithrendayo njengoba sisuka emithonjeni yamafutha efana nodizili nophethiloli siya emithonjeni evumelana nemvelo njengogesi. Abantu abaningi bafuna lawa mashaja e-EV kumasayithi enkampani. Njengezinto eziningi eziqanjiwe ezintsha izinselelo zikhona njengendawo nemithombo yamandla.

I-RAW Charging ingabaluleki abathembekile kubanikazi bezakhiwo, abaqashi kanye nama-ejenti. Njengomphakeli ohamba phambili wokushaja ingqalasizinda kagesi kubanikazi bezakhiwo nezinhlangano ezinkulu zase-UK, i-RAW Charging ikholelwa ukuthi impumelelo yabo ingenxa yokuletha izixazululo ezifanele ezinokwethenjelwa, ezisekelwayo, nezilungele ikusasa.

"Icala elikhulu amandla ngoba leyo yishowstopper, amandla avelaphi?"

U-Pete Umakhi ukhulume noMike Harrison mayelana nokhonkolo kanye nomkhiqizo wabo omusha omusha u-Concretene

UMike Harrison unguMqondisi Wokulethwa kwa- U+I. Ubengusihlalo kulo mcimbi. Inkulumo yakhe yayinesihloko Ukhonkolo: Ukhonkolo ocetshiswe we-graphene owehlisa usimende nokukhishwa kwekhabhoni.

Ithuthukiswe yi-University of Manchester's Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre, Concretene is a type of concrete that is significantly stronger. This allows designers to propose concrete mixes with lower cement content driving down the embodied carbon of one of construction’s most relied upon materials.

Ukukhuthaza abantu ukuthi bathathe into entsha kuhlala kunezinselelo zakho, singazinqoba kanjani lezi zinselelo?

U+I are a property developer and investor focused on regeneration. As experts in regeneration, they use their creative, entrepreneurial and master developer knowledge to create thriving mixed-use places where people can live, work and socialise.

"Ekwenzayo ikunika amandla amakhulu kakhulu kukhonkolo kokuqukethwe kukasimende okufanayo."

Okulandelayo, uPete Umakhi ukhulume noNick Hillard mayelana nokwakhiwa kwemodular

Nick Hillard is the ESG lead at Ukwakhiwa kweTide. He was a keynote speaker at the event. His talk was entitled MMC delivers massive carbon savings.

Following post-construction evaluation and analysis by esteemed academic researchers, there is evidence that in the examples of George Street and The Valentine developed by Tide Construction and Vision Modular Systems design by HTA Design LLP, a significant reduction in embodied ukuphuma kwekhabhoni yafezwa uma kuqhathaniswa nokwakhiwa kwendabuko.

Tide Construction Limited have an unrivalled track record in project delivery using their accredited offsite manufacturing system. The Vision Modular system was developed to address the shortcomings of traditional building practices and is one of the most highly regarded modular construction systems. The use of these innovative methods results in superior standards in quality, sustainability, regulatory compliance, health and safety.

"U-45% wonga uma uqhathaniswa nendlela yokwakha ukhonkolo oqinisiwe"

Isivakashi sethu esilandelayo nguPaul Sullivan. UPete Umakhi ukhulume naye ngezinselelo zokushoda kwabasebenzi embonini yezokwakha

UPaul unguMqondisi Wezohwebo Weqembu leqembu le-ISG Agility. Uletha amaphrojekthi wekhwalithi ephezulu wokufakwa nokulungisa kabusha eLondon naseningizimu-mpumalanga. Ngesipiliyoni seminyaka engaphezu kwengu-20 embonini yezokwakha, uPaul ugxile emikhakheni yangaphakathi neyokulungisa.

Paul personally believes that a key challenge we face in achieving a Net Zero future involves labour shortages in the industry.

I-ISG iyinkampani yezinsizakalo zokwakha enamandla kakhulu emhlabeni, iletha izindawo eziqinile nezinobufakazi besikhathi esizayo ezisiza abantu namabhizinisi ukuthi achume.

“Umsebenzi kumele wenziwe ngo-2030, sikhathazekile nje ukuthi ikhona yini imisebenzi yokuwenza. Silinganise ukuthi cishe kukhona ukushoda kwabahwebi ababalelwa ku-130,000.

UPete Umakhi ukhulume nesinye sezikhulumi zomcimbi, uStuart McLaren mayelana nezindawo ezinekhabhoni ephansi.

UStuart McLaren unguMqondisi we-Net Zero Wengqalasizinda kwa Atkins. Ubengusihlalo kulo mcimbi. Inkulumo yakhe yayinesihloko Ukunciphisa i-carbon estate yakho. Zonke izinselelo zokufinyelela ikusasa le-Net-Zero carbon zikhona endaweni exubile.

Buildings of all ages, many of them historic with many functions, make planning and decision-making around carbon reduction complex. New builds must be balanced with refurbishment and energy provision and consumption must be rationalised.

UStuart McLaren uphinde abe nguMqondisi Wokuthuthukiswa Kwe-Decarbonomics kwa-Atkins. Unolwazi lokubamba izindima ezimbalwa ezihamba phambili emisebenzini yezobuchwepheshe, yokusebenza kanye neyokuthuthukiswa kwebhizinisi kule minyaka engu-15 edlule.

A geologist by training, he now provides strategic leadership around creating and innovating new low carbon and sustainable solutions, products and services across a multidisciplinary engineering, procurement, and construction services global company.

Ngokugxila ezindaweni ezakhiwe, zedijithali nezemvelo, i-Stuart iletha indlela eyingqayizivele nephumelela kakhulu ukuze ibhizinisi likwazi ukuletha imiphumela ebalulekile kumakhasimende abo njengoba likhuluma ngoguquko Lwesimo Sezulu kanye ne-Net Zero ajenda.

“Lapho sihlangana kakhulu futhi sibona ukuthi okuhle kunjani noma okubi kubukeka kanjani kuba nethuba elengeziwe lokuphumelela kule nselele enkulu”

Ingxoxo yokugcina kulesi siqephu sesithathu esikhethekile nguZiad Asmar. USteve Randall ukhulume naye ngokunciphisa ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni

UZiad Asmar uyiSenior Structural unjiniyela at Inkampani Pinnacle Consulting Engineering Ltd. Ukholelwa ukuthi abantu bavulekele imibono emisha ukuze bafinyelele imigomo yesikhathi esizayo ye-Net-Zero naphezu kokwenyuka okungenzeka kwezindleko. Nokho, sizobona kuphela ushintsho lwangempela lapho kumiswa imithetho emisha.

"Izindleko ziyinto enkulu kakhulu kodwa uma ziphoqelekile futhi zilawulwa yilapho sizobona khona ushintsho olukhulu"
