Dear Green Drinkers,
ZEDfactory has been invited to exhibit the construction of two zero carbon buildings within the Urban Best Practice Area at Shanghai Expo.
Zero carbon status has been achieved via a combination of state-of-the-art energy efficiency and building-integrated renewable energy technologies – without resorting to offsetting or remote generation. The building generates enough renewable energy annually to cover its demand. ZedPavilion will remain as a permanent legacy after Expo to inform future zero carbon development in China.
All building components have been sourced in China, and ZEDfactory are building up an excellent best value supply chain to inform the longer-term roll out of zero carbon urbanism. China is building an area the size of London every year. We believe the ZEDfactory model of collaboration, with local industrial production to deliver workable zero carbon projects is more practical than the current international focus on very large, infrastructure-heavy eco city projects, which require excessive up-front investment.
