The construction sector has taken a number of significant steps towards net zero according to data published today. At COP26 last year, the Construction Leadership Council launched its CO2nstruct Zero programme, with associated measures to track carbon reduction activities, and challenge the industry to improve in 9 key areas.
The first annual review of progress sets out the evidence that UK construction is playing a leading role in cutting carbon.
The annual CO2nstruct Zero Performance Dashboard shows that the last 12 months has seen the sector:
- Train more than 500 retrofit co-ordinators, with associated business accreditation
- Connect 55,000 heat pumps by 4,100 trained & registered installers
- Deliver a 33 per cent increase in EV charging points
- Include carbon literacy in professional qualifications
