Housing

The Upland Centre project on eco-housing comes at a time when changing our habits to prevent further climate change is hot on the governments agenda.

A recent workshop at the Upland Centre helped to set our research agenda - Workshop Report

 The DTI have recently published a micro-generation strategy http://www.dti.gov.uk/energy/environment/microgeneration/

 A Consultation was recently held on a code for sustainable homes http://www.odpm.gov.uk/index.asp?id=1162094. The Upland Centre contributed to the consultation,  and the government are now radically altering the code to take into account this and other responses. Centre Response to Consultation
