The Green Register’s early evening talks supported by Ecomerchant: together promoting ethical, healthy sustainable building materials.

This month we welcomed Davide di Martino to talk about Nomoregas, a platform dedicated to helping people find alternative heating and gas solutions to gas boilers. The platform provides resources and strategies to reduce reliance on traditional fuels tailored to several building types. Research into the most sustainable options for heating systems and retrofits has led the team to explore the effects of grid decarbonisation, prompting them to rethink pragmatic approaches to sustainability that focus on reducing embodied carbon.

If you missed this session, you can view the recording below and access the slides here. For all previous Twilight Talks, please visit our YouTube page.

We have lots on this month:

• Our ever-popular technical training course covering emerging research, best practice and case studies in the field of upgrading traditional and historic buildings is running later this month. Join us and expert trainer Nicholas Heath at Retrofitting Traditional Buildings to learn about how to de-risk projects and achieve ‘responsible retrofit’. Retrofitting Traditional Buildings 2: Case Studies will run on 2 July – get a discount when you book both sessions together!
• Green Register members Greenheart were approached by the client with a project (Church Rd, Bath) that had been designed and put out to tender and had come in over budget. Their Construction Manager & Project Designer will outline their approach to this sort of value engineering design and build process. With key elements such as team communication, transparency with client and regular cost reviews. June 26 | 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm
