UK&I An introduction of the UK net zero carbon buildings standard webinar

Overview

Join this webinar for a clear and accessible introduction to the UK Net Zero Carbon Buildings Standard (UK NZCBS), which was launched in March 2026, as it will highlight its purpose, scope, and practical use across the built environment.

Designed for professionals working across different disciplines and project stages, the session breaks down the core principles of the standard and explains how it aligns with wider UK climate targets and regulatory frameworks.

Participants will gain an understanding of:

• What the UK NZCBS covers and what it does not cover.
• How the standard fits within the UK’s broader net‑zero strategy, including policy alignment and industry expectations.
• Key terminology, definitions, assessment methodology and principles that underpin the standard.
• The evolution of the UK NZCBS, including how and why it has developed to its current form.
• Which buildings and project types can use the standard, and how different professions can apply it.
• Future developments, including anticipated updates and areas of ongoing work.

The session sets the context, clarifies objectives, and provides a high‑level overview of how the standard works in practice.
