BESA Connects you to the Net Zero Hub

One of our key priorities is supporting our members on their journey to Net Zero, which is why we have created the BESA Net Zero Hub.

Net Zero Hub

Our Net Zero Hub is regularly updated with the latest guidance and regulations so that you don't have to trawl government sites to find out what the next steps are for you or your business.

There's a lot of information, a lot to think about and a lot to do, so let us help you by laying the key facts out for you whilst also making suggestions as to how you can help achieve net zero and win more work in a low-carbon economy.

Building better, greener buildings?

The UK’s ambition to achieve Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 is becoming an increasingly pressing issue - particularly for those working in the built environment.

Net Zero has been influencing legislation on areas such as energy use in buildings for some time, and more regulatory changes are on the horizon. And it’s not only the government driving change. Construction and property clients are also looking to reduce the carbon footprints of their buildings.

BESA members are crucial to delivering systems that help to achieve and operate low-carbon buildings. For example, they have expertise in selecting and installing energy-using HVAC systems, as well as low-carbon technologies such as heat pumps.

How to achieve Net Zero for your Business

Net Zero must be delivered across the whole of the UK, including businesses of all sizes and types. It may seem like a huge challenge, but in fact many BESA member businesses are already taking steps to reduce their energy use and shrink their carbon footprints.

• Installing controls in their offices and other buildings to make energy management easier
• Making office building improvements such as updating older equipment, adding insulation and changing to LED lighting
• Switching their vans and fleet cars to electric vehicles
• Doing more to recycle the products they use in day-to-day business
