An inside look at excellence: Tour ‘The UK’s Greenest Building’

The Enterprise Centre at the University of East Anglia is multi-award-winning- the first building to achieve Passivhaus certification and a BREEAM Outstanding rating.  Combined with the use of natural and recycled materials sourced through local supply chains, this ambitious project is an exemplar of low embodied energy and carbon construction technologies: the predicted lifecycle CO2 emissions are approximately 20-25% of the emissions of a similar university building built to ‘best practice’ standards. It also provides world-class facilities and significant health and well-being benefits for occupants.

Fit for the Future is offering members a unique opportunity to look behind the scenes and hear from an end-user about the building’s design and construction, operational processes, and performance.
