Wind farms awarded contracts over the last 7 years by the UK Government to generate clean power will save each household nearly £250 per year, compared to the cost of generating electricity from gas at this winter’s prices, according to an analysis by RenewableUK. The analysis showed that the 19 gigawatts (GW) of wind farm capacity which have won Contracts for Difference (CfDs) so far will generate 93 terawatt hours (TWh) by the time power stations come online in 2027. This represents 30% of annual UK electricity generation at present and is enough to power nearly 25 million homes a year. RenewableUK said that costs have fallen sharply over the past seven years, with the latest round of offshore wind projects coming in 70% cheaper than those awarded contracts in 2015 – making offshore wind the cheapest source of new power in the UK. Wind farms supported by CfDs will generate 93TWh at a total cost of £5bn. The equivalent cost of getting that electricity from gas would be around £26bn at current prices, according to RenewableUK – something they claim represents a saving to consumers of over £20bn, with every UK household benefitting by £246 a year. The renewable energy trade association is now urging the Government to accelerate the roll-out of new renewables to avoid future gas crises for consumers. “Our analysis shows that the faster we can grow wind energy in the UK, the more consumers will save,” RenewableUK CEO Dan McGrail said. “To do that, we need a stable framework for investment so that companies are confident they will make a return. There is a global race for renewable investment and I want the UK to be the most attractive place in the world to invest in wind so that bill payers and the wider economy benefit fully from cheap, renewable power. He added that cross-party support has been “central to the success of renewables over the past decade”, and that “MPs can be confident that consumers are benefiting from CfDs for wind farms which have paid back over £500m in the last twelve months alone”. “Wind energy can cut bills for consumers quicker than other large-scale technologies and I look forward to working with Rishi Sunak so that industry can speed up the roll-out of cheaper, home-grown energy,” McGrail said.
GMI Construction Group has been recognised by Siemens Mobility for its excellence after receiving two honours in its 2022 Supplier Awards. The independent company, which is delivering a £40m contract to build Siemens Mobility’s new 247,676 sq. ft. train manufacturing facility at Goole, East Yorkshire, was presented with the ‘Working Together as One’ and ‘Responsible & Sustainable Procurement’ awards. Covering five categories, the awards honour those suppliers making significant contributions to Siemens Mobility’s success with their outstanding performance. GMI Construction Group is lead contractor on the £200m rail manufacturing facility, which incorporates manufacturing and commissioning buildings, warehouses, offices and stabling sidings. In addition, it is constructing 4.5km of rail track to link the facility to the main railway line. Its commitment to using local suppliers, an emphasis on employment skills and education, as well as an outstanding record of project delivery was key to the Yorkshire-based firm securing the contract. The facility, which will create 700 new jobs, together with a further 250 roles in the construction phase and an additional 1,700 indirect supply chain opportunities, will establish Goole as a centre of excellence for rail technology within the UK. The first trains to be manufactured there will be state-of-the-art Tube trains for London’s Piccadilly line. Sambit Banerjee, Managing Director, Rolling Stock and Customer Services for Siemens Mobility Limited, said: “Congratulations to GMI Construction for these awards, which recognise the excellent progress being made in delivering our facility in Goole and the strong sustainability credentials of this industry-leading development. “Working so closely and collaboratively with a construction contractor based in Yorkshire reflects our commitment to a local and national supply chain. “That commitment applies to the Goole project and across all our UK operations. We’re proud that around 90% of our spend in the UK is with UK-based suppliers.” Lee Powell, CEO of GMI Construction Group, said: “It’s gratifying to know that GMI’s founding principles of partnership, trust, and delivering on quality have been recognised by Siemens Mobility in the form of these two awards. “Throughout our time on this project we have worked closely with Siemens Mobility together with our delivery partners to ensure this flagship development is delivered in an effective and efficient manner.” Andrew Hurcombe, GMI’s Divisional Managing Director Yorkshire, added: “Sustainability is at the heart of our business. Working in partnership with Mace Group, we have recorded and managed the amount of carbon generated as part of the construction of this facility. “This has allowed us to introduce a range of sustainable initiatives, for example the development of concrete slabs that don’t require steel rebar reinforcement. Such initiatives, together with carbon offsetting measures, has allowed us to achieve a development with exceptional sustainability credentials. “These awards are testament to the hard work and dedication of our team on this site.” Building, Design and Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals
Work has begun on a substantial housing development in Carterton in Oxfordshire that will see 200 homes provided for people to live in the area. Platform Housing Group have begun work at the site at Milestone Road which has been provided by West Oxfordshire District Council and will be developed by United Living. It represents the group’s largest site in the area to date and the continuation of their strong start of their strategic partnership with Homes England. Over the next four years, the new homes will be made available through Platform’s different affordable options. 105 of the homes will be available to rent, 12 as rent to buy and 83 through the increasingly popular shared ownership scheme. This allows people to purchase a share of their home and then pay a rent on the rest with the option to increase that share up to 100%. Amongst those visiting the site was MP for Witney and West Oxford Robert Courts who said, “It was a pleasure to visit the site in Carterton which will provide much needed affordable homes for local people. It was encouraging to see work getting underway and useful to learn more about how this development will benefit local people and the wider area in Carterton. I look forward to following progress closely.” Group Chief Executive of Platform Elizabeth Froude said, “It’s been fantastic to see the site today where we’ll be able to provide much needed affordable housing for the area. We look forward to offering people real opportunities to live in the area and even buy a home that is quality and affordable. With 200 different homes, we are delighted to be offering such a large site for our partners at West Oxfordshire District Council who have been fully committed to these options to help with the growth of the area. I’d also like to thank our developers United Living and Homes England for their help in delivering this development.” Carl Rylett Cabinet Member for Planning and Sustainable Development at West Oxfordshire District Council said, “It’s good to see this site come forward for development; affordable housing is greatly needed in West Oxfordshire. We identified the site through the Council’s Local Plan, and granted planning permission in 2020. We are fully committed as a council to bringing forward sites for affordable housing development, and this development will make a real difference to the community.” Neil Farmery, Construction Director, United Living New Homes, said: “We are delighted to have started building work at Milestone Road. Working collaboratively with Platform Housing Group, we look forward to delivering high-quality, affordable new homes that will provide a welcome housing boost to the local community.” The diginitaries took in a site tour as part of the visit today and got to find out how much the development will benefit people in the area from members of Platform’s communities department, who spoke about the services and support they give their customers.

Since the launch of net zero EnviroHoard™ in 2021, Panthera Group contracts for the sustainable site protection hoarding system now exceed 53% of all hoarding sales in the business; a figure that far outperforms predicted forecasts. This is no doubt assisted by the wider construction sector’s drive for net zero. As a result, the in-house production of patent-pending EnviroBlok™ has increased by over a third and Panthera Group has not only recruited additional production staff, but has had to procure additional steel moulds to meet demand. The unique, low carbon block integrates 50% GGBS providing a saving in CO2 of 194 kg / m³ compared to CEMI concrete. It is produced to Panthera’s specification by Hanson Concrete and poured into unique moulds designed by Neal James, Managing Director of Panthera. The blocks are one element of the vertical integration strategy pioneered by Neal who wanted to take control of as many areas of production as possible to ensure quality and stock levels. Despite global economic challenges, the company’s order book for its EnviroHoard™ system is surpassing all expectations. “A combination of new projects and the switch from timber hoarding to EnviroHoard™ has driven demand of the systems low carbon 800kg support block. This is now a full-time operation at Panthera Group and so we are delighted to welcome, Kieran and Harry, who have joined the company to supports its manufacturing of EnviroBlok. With unique fixings inherent in the design, this is a skilled role and one that assures a quality product. I am delighted our focus on sustainable hoarding is having a real impact across the construction industry.”
The World Green Building Council (WorldGBC) has launched today (26 October 2022) a new industry guide on ‘Climate Change Resilience in the Built Environment’, collating effective and practical steps that can be taken on a building, community and city scale in order to adapt and build resilience to the changing climate. Under the inevitable impacts of climate change, which are affecting at least 85% of the world’s population, bringing acute hazards such as droughts, rising sea levels, heat waves and floods increasing frequency and severity, resilience action is essential to build community capacity to survive and thrive in our built environments. That’s why WorldGBC’s flagship Health and Wellbeing global programme Better Places for People (BPFP) has partnered with the UN High-Level Climate Champions and C40 Cities to deliver this timely resource for enabling adaptation at different urban scales and inspiring decisive action to deliver on the needs of communities around the world. On 10 November 2022, during the Youth & Future Generations Day at the UN Climate Change Conference, COP27, and in line with ‘Resilience’ being the UN High-Level Climate Champions’ focus of the day, the guide will be showcased at a high-level event in the Buildings Pavilion of the Blue Zone. This will continue to elevate awareness on the critical role of the built environment for securing a resilient future. What is the aim of the guide? The ‘Climate Change Resilience in the Built Environment’ guide presents principles of built environment management for changes to weather related climate change impacts such as: storms, high winds, droughts, floods, severe temperature change, and wildfires. These principles are focused on measures of mitigation and damage protection from continual or gradual climate impacts and in some cases, extreme weather events. The impacts of climate change and damage from extreme and gradual weather events will occur at building, community and city scale across all corners of the globe. Therefore, measures to mitigate damage and ensure recoverability must be implemented at a systemic level. To incorporate climate resilience strategies across a series of complex systems, all built environment stakeholders and decision makers will have to engage and take responsibility. Leadership from local and national government is essential to activate meaningful adaptation and resilience solutions. WorldGBC encourages the broad range of built environment stakeholders set out in the guide to engage with their role, to exert their influence and implement change. Under the inevitable impacts of climate change, resilience action is essential if we are to build the community capacity to survive and thrive within our built environments. We need to listen and learn from the voices of those communities most impacted by climate impacts – to respond adequately in the delivery of resiliency solutions. WorldGBC is grateful for the support from the BPFP Steering Committee and Sponsors, including Buro Happold, Multiplex, Saint-Gobain, and Shaw Contract. The full guide can be downloaded here. Cristina Gamboa, CEO, WorldGBC: “In response to the ongoing impacts of our changing climate, the UN High-Level Climate Champion, C40 cities, and WorldGBC are proud to share this practical guide for Climate Change Resilience in the Built Environment in the lead up to COP27. This principle-based resource will support the much-needed transition towards people-centric infrastructure solutions considering different urban scales. It’s time to scale low carbon, highly resilient and equitable built environment solutions for everyone, everywhere. And it’s time for impactful policy responses from local and regional leaders, to enable this much needed transformation. Join us and take ambitious climate action today!” Nigel Topping, UN High-Level Climate Action Champion for UK COP26, andDr. Mahmoud Mohieldin, UN’s High-Level Climate Action Champion for Egypt COP27: “The built environment sector has the opportunity to lead the resilience agenda, placing adaptation on par with mitigation through how we design, manage and occupy buildings and infrastructure for the worlds’ people. Regardless of where you live or where you do business, we all need to build resilience to climate change.” Sachin Bhoite, Director of Climate Resilience, Climate Solutions and Networks, C40 Cities: “The dangerous consequences of climate change are already posing an existential threat worldwide. This is felt acutely in our largest cities. Cities are important in this regard, not only because it is where a majority of people live, but also where the most impactful solutions could be implemented. Applying adaptation solutions to our cities will ensure that the built environment continues to protect, provide for and connect urban citizens, despite a changing climate.” Pascal Eveillard, Director, Sustainable Business Development, Saint-Gobain: “It is fundamental to consider now the resilience and adaptation of our built environment to climate change. Buildings are and will be increasingly exposed to higher climate stresses and more frequent climate shocks and extreme weather conditions, disrupting our lives and damaging our natural environment. This guide provides key insights to develop efficient strategies at all levels to better protect humans and nature.” María Fernández Cachafeiro, Head of Sustainability, Multiplex: “The impacts of climate change are a present-day reality felt by everyone, globally. We need to put people first to deliver strategies and solutions for a resilient and adaptable built environment.” Kellie Ballew, Vice President of Global Sustainability, Shaw Contract: “The resilience of our built environment – the spaces where we live, work, learn, heal, and come together – is more important than ever and requires a focus on people AND the planet.” Viviana Valdivieso, CEO, Colombia Green Building Council (CCCS): “We are committed to promoting a built environment that positively impacts all life on our planet. Therefore, sustainable and resilient practices should not be an option, they are the way to achieve fundamental human right level design!” Jorge Chapa, Head of Market Transformation, Green Building Council Australia (GBCA): “In Australia, many of the communities who fought bushfires in 2019 are today inundated with floods. The climate is changing, here and now. It’s time for the built environment to respond.” Building, Design and Construction Magazine | The Choice of Industry Professionals
The Thermal Insulation Contractors Association (TICA) says new legislation will enforce installer and construction competence and put an end to the current “race to the bottom” that cuts both costs and safety. Marion Marsland, Chief Executive of the trade association, has hailed the Building Safety Act, the largest piece of built environment legislation in more than 50 years, as tremendously important in upholding standards and increasing collaboration within the supply chain. The Act also paves the way for secondary legislation that places competence at the heart of the industry and will put an end to thermal insulation specialists being pushed out of projects by contractors without a Construction Related Occupation CSCS card or those prepared to use non-compliant materials. It will ensure sub-contractors operating in the sector will be recognised as specialists, with the ability to evidence their specific knowledge, skills, and experience – which in turn will drive up standards. Currently there are a minimum set of requirements, such as BS 5422 and BS 5970, which provide recommendations on thermal insulation materials for pipes, tanks, vessels, ductwork and equipment operating within specified temperature ranges. However, while a consultant will specify insulation thickness, such standards are referenced down the line in sub-contractor technical submittals – despite the fact understanding is often lacking throughout the value chain. Marion Marsland said: “Many people currently referencing the standards don’t have the experience or knowledge to ensure specified standards are being met by the installer – a situation that benefits those contractors who either ignore or flout relevant standards. “For too long, the relationship between the thermal insulation industry and the wider building services industry has been transactional, with clients essentially asking contractors ‘how cheap can you lag the pipework on our project?’. “This process, repeated time and time again, represents a race to the bottom, where competent thermal insulation specialists end up being pushed out of projects by contractors employing uncarded labour or substituting the specified product with non-compliant materials. “Sadly, specialist contractors are not the only losers as the standards also matter to the owners and occupiers of badly insulated buildings, particularly when it comes to excess energy bills and overheating issues.” “Thankfully, these practices will not stand against the wave of change heading towards the built environment sector in the form of the Building Safety Act and resulting secondary legislation.” Chris Ridge, TICA’s Technical Policy Manager, added: “At TICA we are working with our members to ensure they are well placed to adapt to the changes ahead. We are also working with key stakeholders in the building services industry to ensure our approach to competence frameworks aligns with and supports the wider drive towards improved competence in the built environment sector. “The vast majority of TICA members are SME businesses, and we recognise that accessing relevant standards could be problematic. We have therefore partnered with the BSI to develop a portal for full members to access thermal insulation related standards. In addition, we will be rolling out regular CPD that will provide greater levels of product and policy related knowledge and ensure they remain the standard bearers of the thermal insulation industry.”

Wildlife is returning to a former industrial site in Cheadle which is being transformed into an environmentally-friendly new residential neighbourhood. Ducks and trout are already visiting the new nature corridor at Bellway’s Cecilly Mills development, off Oakamoor Road, which was for many years home to the JCB factory. The Cecilly Brook formerly flowed through a closed culvert under a series of concrete bridges on the brownfield site – but has been restored to its natural glory as part of Bellway’s green vision for the development. Bellway is building 120 new homes on the nine-and-a-half-acre site, with work on the first homes beginning in December 2020. The scheme to restore the brook has created an eight-metre ecological buffer zone with new planting and wildlife habitats, as well as bee banks to encourage biodiversity in the area. Lee Aston, Site Manager at Cecilly Mills, said: “We pay due care and attention at all sites that we build on to ensure that we can help to encourage biodiversity wherever we can. In this instance, we’ve incorporated an existing natural feature into a new wildlife corridor. “This site has undergone a significant transformation from an industrial brownfield site into a natural green space that actively promotes biodiversity, providing a pleasant and open backdrop for our residents as well as habitats for wildlife. “The brook has already proven to be very popular with residents and local people alike, who have been seen taking pictures from Oakamoor Road, which provides a perfect vantage point for the brook and the development. “Despite only having started the works in December 2020, we have already seen wildlife returning to the site, including several flocks of ducks and a sizeable number of trout in the stream, which makes the work all that more rewarding. In time, we also hope to see the return of water voles to this area, connecting the two populations found at the Palm Brook and Cecilly Brook Local Nature Reserves to the north and south of the site respectively. “While we have made great strides on the site until now, there is still plenty of work to be done to finish building the final homes on site. The remaining building work will be completed while ensuring that the brook, our staff, and the natural environment are all protected. “We look forward to completing the work here and finishing the transformation of this site into a desirable and environmentally friendly development, helping to meet the demand for high-quality housing in Staffordshire.” Bellway is delivering a mix of two to four-bedroom properties at Cecilly Mills, with prices starting from £199,500.
