Planning for Sustainability SPD

Executive summary from entrant:

Sustainable development is not just the heart of the planning system – it is also at the top of the list for business occupiers and investors in commercial real estate in the Square Mile. Yet delivery has never been more complex, with multiple standards and accreditations, shifting carbon benchmarks, and the unique challenges and opportunities of each site. The Planning for Sustainability SPD is a clear guide through the sustainability puzzle, developed largely in-house by the City’s highly respected sustainability team, supported by Buro Happold, and informed by engagement with a broad range of expertise from across the industry.
