What if you could limit carbon emissions from the very start of a residential project? We developed the industry-first Future Homes Carbon Assessment Tool to help small- and medium-sized homebuilders to achieve just that. It estimates carbon usage at the earliest stages of the project to ultimately influence their choice of construction. 

Historically, small- and medium-sized homebuilders have faced hurdles in utilising whole life carbon (WLC) guidance and tools. We’ve teamed up with Future Homes Hub (FHH) to introduce the Future Homes Carbon Assessment Tool to simplify carbon calculations for low and medium-rise buildings. It helps developers and designers to quickly and easily calculate carbon emissions at all stages of a residential building’s lifecycle, accelerating the industry’s progress towards Net Zero. 

This new tool incorporates guidelines from the Future Homes Hub Whole Life Carbon Conventions for New Homes, which ensures a consistent approach tailored to the new homes sector. Our Senior Net Zero Consultant, Marika Gabbianelli says, "The Future Homes Carbon Assessment Tool will help small and medium-sized homebuilders break down the barriers to whole life carbon assessments, enable carbon option comparisons and create new opportunities for carbon reduction. We're excited to partner with Future Homes Hub on this innovative tool to bring carbon data and management to the early stages of design."
