From ambition to action: strategies and solutions for delivering net-zero buildings
This is a recording of a panel session held in the Willmott Dixon pavilion at UKREiiF 2025. Our panel of experts discussed key strategies and standards that can facilitate the transition to net zero, as well as examples of where it's already being done.
The conversation spanned the importance of early design decisions, data-led performance monitoring, the need for a 'common currency' to define value, and the tangible benefits to individuals and local communities.
The panel featured:
Cllr Ian Courts - Deputy Leader at Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council
David Partridge - Chair at UK NZC Buildings Standard Governance Board
Francesca Wilkinson - Senior Sustainability and Environmental Manager at Willmott Dixon
Lorna Taverner - Head of Passivhaus at Willmott Dixon
Pam Scott - Head of Economic Regeneration and Housing Delivery at Huntingdonshire District Council
