Net Zero in action: HVAC shapes the future


A


s the clock ticks toward the UK’s Net Zero targets, the HVAC sector sits firmly at the centre of this challenge — and, increasingly, at the heart of the solution. In this issue we show


that meaningful progress is already being made, project by project. In South Kilburn, a 225-home regeneration scheme demonstrates


how the use of a high-performance pipe insulation solution from Kooltherm helped the development achieve Net Zero Carbon emissions in line with the London Plan (p15). Education is another area where innovation is accelerating. At


Callerton Academy in Newcastle, the 1,400-pupil school has reached carbon neutral status through a sustainable air movement strategy, combining hybrid ventilation with heat recovery from Gilberts (p16). Looking ahead, Tim Mitchell of Klima-Therm highlights the urgent need to adapt to climate change, pointing to the next generation of heat pumps capable of delivering year-round climate control (p17). Together, these projects show an industry not waiting for deadlines — but actively shaping a lower-carbon future. Other features this month include: Humidity Control from pg 12,


Ventilation & Air Movement from pg 20, and Sustainability on pg 23. Heathe Ramsden, Edito
