Can you see your organisation in this description?..

You know that a transformation is underway in the construction industry, with increasing emphasis on building with environmental protection in mind.  As a constructor of homes, workspaces and amenities you find you’ve now become instrumental in the government’s plans to counter global warming!  Not only must your buildings meet stringent regulations to use less energy and reduce emissions, but suddenly customers are expecting you to advise them on the latest innovations – to provide environmental ‘solutions’ to problems that you’re only just beginning to understand.  A grounding in the new legislation would certainly give you the confidence to move forward, but it needs to relate to your sector of the industry and the kinds of people you deal with – dry facts and figures are of little use.

Or perhaps you know that the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) legislation has been adopted throughout the EU and will soon apply to all construction projects.  You accept the challenge of making sure that the regulations are met and of convincing your employees of their importance.  And you want to go further than mere compliance.  You see opportunity as well as regulation: the chance to embrace innovations in design, materials and ways of working.  It could open up major new contract areas and raise your profile alongside more prestigious companies.   But you need to know more about the Directive and how you can use it to your advantage now and in the future.

How Code Green can help you

Code Green can advise you on all aspects of the EPBD.  We can take you from its genesis in the Kyoto Protocol targets right up to the detail of implementation and the progress of new initiatives like Energy Labelling and Home Information Packs.  Perhaps most usefully, we can show you how industry leaders are developing their approaches around the need for the measurement, improvement, inspection and certification of energy performance – what their forward thinking is doing for them.  And we’ll advise you on how your business can do the same.

Our expertise and our involvement in certification mean that we can offer you practical support – advice and recommendations that are relevant to your situation – to ensure your compliance with the Directive.  Our broad experience across the industry makes us an ideal choice if you’re looking to plan your future business with this crucial piece of environmental legislation, and the opportunities it brings, in mind.
