Â鶹Դ´ President to join sustainability debate at this year’s UK Construction Week
Â鶹Դ´ President Stacey Lucas will be joining the Construction Leadership Council’s (CLC) thought-provoking panel at UK Construction Week 2024 to further discussion on the sustainability challenges facing the built environment.
Offering an incredible opportunity to discuss the construction industry’s sustainability practices and the UK’s journey towards net zero in 2050, the panel will launch the eighth version of the CLC’s CZ Performance Framework.
Developed to provide the CLC with a sector-level dashboard on the progress towards net zero and motivate businesses to enhance their sustainability strategies, the Performance Framework is closely aligned with Government policy and focuses heavily on carbon measurement and assessment.
As an association that has sustainability at the forefront of everything it does, the Â鶹Դ´ is keen to work with other industry leaders and policy makers to further knowledge and understanding on the importance of decarbonisation and the vital role building automation can play.
Â鶹Դ´ President Stacey Lucas underlined the need for the construction industry to come together to improve sustainability practices and reduce carbon emissions with the 2050 net zero target in mind.
She said: “Sustainability is such an important focus of the built environment and it’s great that the framework is shining a spotlight on it. The construction industry is still one of the biggest causes of carbon emissions, so it’s vital that the industry works together to reduce energy consumption.
“It’s an honour to be a part of this panel and it’s a brilliant opportunity to highlight the important role that building automation can play in enhancing energy efficiency and sustainability in buildings across the UK.
The panel discussion kicks off the first day of the three-day event, taking place between Tuesday 1st and Thursday 3rd October 2024 at NEC Birmingham. Expected to receive more than 20,000 visitors, and featuring more than 300 exhibitors, the industry’s leading exhibition is set to be the biggest and best yet.
