1. Instead of “asking” developers to take energy reducing steps when building housing, there should be an obligation to do so. Developers “must” do what Warwick DC sets out, with no opt out option for developers. The language and expectations need to change and become more stringent. Warwick DC has committed to deliver energy reductions in its Climate Emergency declaration.
2. Alongside energy reduction measures, there should be consideration of energy-reducing, sustainable public travel: prioritising public transport, pedestrian and cycling areas over the use of petrol or diesel fuelled cars. Charging points for electric vehicles should be provided widely.
3. Net zero carbon targets should be defined as energy performance “in use”.
