The CCC’s June 2020 Emissions Progress Report
The Committee on Climate Change’s (CCC) most recent update on how the UK is progressing towards the achievement of emissions-based targets, such as net zero by 2050 and the carbon budgets, has certainly been listened to. There is no doubt that it influenced the Chancellor's recent Summer Economic Update and the decision to target a green recovery from the Covid-19 crisis.
So, what does the CCC see as the future of construction and what can be done to prepare for the changes this will make to HVAC specification?
We have summarised key industry insights in our 196-page report, structured by most commonly asked questions
Our report covers :
- How has lockdown affected the UK’s emissions progress?
- Has investment in low carbon solutions been shown to be commercially beneficial?
- Is the carbon tax scheme in London going to be applied to the whole of the UK? What does this mean for the development of upcoming regulation changes?
- Will Government address the cost difference between electricity and gas?
Our range of HVAC solutions aim to provide future proof technologies to building projects over various sectors.
What is a low surface temperature (LSTE) panel heater?
In this FAQ we look at low surface temperature (LST) radiators to see what they are and why their specification is required in sectors such as education and healthcare.
Which panel heater is best for student accommodation and why?
In student accommodation, there are patterns of occupancy and behaviour that can lead to wasted heat and higher energy costs. Keeping energy use in check is vital for the providers of student accommodation and choosing the right panel heater with intelligent controls can help minimise heating costs.
IP ratings for electric radiators and why they matter
What are the IP ratings for electric radiators and why do they matter?
IP ratings indicate how well the enclosure around a device such as an electric radiator or a panel heater, will protect the internal mechanical and electrical components from the ingress of solids and liquids. Intrusion into an electric radiator by fingers, foreign objects of various diameters, or water could pose a hazard to the user and risk damaging the product.
