In this episode of the BREEAM Podcast, Breana Wheeler, BRE’s U.S Director of Operations talks to Tom Wilson, Head of BREEAM Development about the launch of BREEAM New Construction Version 7 and what it means for designers, developers and the sustainability of the built environment.

Some of the topics covered are:

• The electrification of buildings and how this energy strategy can help decarbonise the built environment
• Net zero carbon buildings and how BREEAM can support their development
• How BRE used building science to develop BREEAM in the 1990s, when sustainability of the built environment was a relatively new concept
• How the new BREEAM digital platform makes reporting less of a chore and enables building managers and owners to act on the data.
