The Brief
To conduct whole life cycle carbon assessments and produce Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) for new refurbishments along Lonsdale Road. The aim was to track the client’s Scope 3 emissions and ensure the projects align with their ambitious ESG targets.
The Solution
The Love Zero Waste team evaluated the carbon impact across the entire life cycle of the refurbishments, assessing both embodied carbon from materials and operational carbon post-refurbishment. This analysis informed our design recommendations to both the client and the contractor on how to minimise carbon emissions. The Love
Energy & Retrofit team performed energy assessments and generated EPCs, allowing the client to benchmark energy efficiency and meet best-in-class standards.

The Result
There has been significant value garnered from our team collaborating directly with the client’s contractors - advising on circular economy principles and material selections from concept design to final build-out. This engagement helps to minimise carbon associated with all refurbishments, avoid abortive work for the client and their partners, and ensure early decision making does not lead to later issues. Our work continues, ensuring the refurbishments along Lonsdale Road are on track to meet sustainability goals.
