As an atelier group within the 6th year of our Architecture degree, we produced this Carbon Zero Research Document which was required to gain a deeper understanding on how to achieve a successful design for a zero carbon city.
The document analyses eleven sectors within the zero carbon field, such as transport, accessibility and power. Each section goes into a high level of detail, including mathematical calculations and computational experiments which were undertaken to test the feasibility of the current government guidelines and policies.
We hope that this research document will be used as a reference within zero carbon city design and will shed a light on the development industry in order to tackle the current climate emergency.
