Planning Conference ‘Net Zero Homes. Can Dorset Do It?’ presentations 1-3

Homes designed to be Net Zero are not only good for the planet, but also good for their occupants, being constructed to higher standards and having lower running costs.

Can Dorset join the Leaders of the Zero Carbon Housing Revolution?

Our planning conference held on 4th June 2025 looked at how Dorset can rise to the challenge of ensuring that all new homes meet net zero. The event brought together industry expertspolicy makersdevelopers and academics to discuss the latest innovations and challenges in zero carbon sustainable housing.

The recordings have been adding to the Dorset CPRE YouTube channel , six in total. Rupert Hardy, North Dorset CPRE Chair, wrote a very good two page article ‘Can Dorset do it?’ summarising the main points from the conference for the July edition of the Blackmore Vale Magazine.
