As the UK Government pledges to reach Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, the urge for sustainable buildings is stronger than ever, according to LSH’s Frankie Bryon.
Bryon writes, according to the UK Green Building Council, an estimated 40% of the UK’s carbon footprint is attributed to the built environment, half of which comes from energy used in building. Heating alone created 10% of the country’s carbon footprint.
Smart technology can help buildings improve on sustainability as well introduce other benefits that include promoting health and wellbeing and enable agile working.
GS Technologies Ltd (LON:GST), through its subsidiary, EMS Wiring Systems Pte. Ltd, provides services in the “Smart Building” sector. Smart Building is a diverse term that refers to the technological capabilities of buildings and other work place facilities.
