    It's interesting to see the compartmentalization of residential and natural spaces. It would be heartening to see a tree outside your window. With the right choice for trees and their placement you could have the advantage of shade on the houses in the summer without their blocking the solar panels.

    I was surprised to see that steps had been put in to support wildlife etc., But then fence panels were put in instead of hedging

    In the world of advanced science & technology, we can implement so many solutions as this and we are just in need of human willingness as well as investments to kick start. Great video, we would love to add your video to one of our playlists to inspire climate solutions.

      We have entirely (& not efficient) electric homes today powered year round entirely by sun ! Even in high latitudes such a Northern Europe , if homes are designed efficient (as these in UK), they will need less than half the FotoVoltaic capacity , & therefore half cost, than energy needed to supply mainstream inefficient houses built to be feed by utility grid.

    One problem i see with these new types of builds. There trying to build an insulated box with no air leeks. Yes makes sense, heat the inside and keep it warm. What about all the moisture people and life generate. 🤔 heat exchangers are expensive and leaving the windows open in winter kinda defeats the purpose.you dont want damp if these are timber framed.

      Heat exchangers are not expensive if your savings pay for it over a few years, and then you start keeping your dollars from the savings. But sure, build a stone and thatch house, Ivan, Russia wants to live in the 17th century, I get it.

      depends on so many things! We prefer rehabbing old buildings over new construction, due in large part to the quality of wood that just doesn't exist any more, as well as breathable assemblies with a high drying potential

    Combined heat and power 🤮
    Locked in emissions to this ‘eco town’. Without the CHP unit this really could have been low carbon. Instead, each home is forced to have a high fossil source of heat.
