Recently, WMI had the chance to explore the evolving landscape of waste management and sustainable energy production. Through many conversations with industry experts, we discovered the pivotal role AD plants play in transforming bio-waste from commercial establishments into valuable resources. |
The landscape of building standards in the United Kingdom is on the brink of transformation as the government embarks on a journey to redefine regulations in the "Future Homes and Building Standards Consultation." This ambitious initiative encompasses parts F, L, and O of the England Building Regulations, with an overarching goal to achieve a minimum of 75% carbon savings in comparison to structures constructed under the 2013 standards. |
The current energy crisis has added pressure on governments to accelerate their green initiatives in space and water heating technologies. It will therefore come as no surprise that our analysis of the global water heating markets found that heat pumps, electric storage, and instantaneous water heaters recorded the biggest growth in 2023 and the forecasted period. |

This year’s COP summit has finally concluded following heated debate between the 198 participating countries that over-ran into the early hours of Wednesday morning. The issue dominating the headlines has been the severity of the language used to signal the crucial phasing out of fossil fuels. |
A net zero carbon building is one with net zero whole life emissions. This includes both operational and embodied emissions. Operational emissions should be near zero. Embodied emissions from the product and construction phases should be measured, minimised, and offset at practical completion. This guide focuses on what building professionals need to understand about embodied emissions as part of creating a net zero built environment. |
The Living Laboratory Innovation Challenge is an exciting and unique opportunity for stakeholders to collaborate on the design, installation, and commissioning of a cutting-edge HVAC and lighting solution in the office space at the BSRIA Headquarters located in Bracknell, Berkshire. |

Hey there! I’m Lottie, and I’ve had quite an adventure during my week of work experience at BSRIA. Let me share all the incredible experiences I’ve had so far. |
Ventilation is the process of exchanging indoor air with clean filtered outdoor air to remove stagnant or polluted air from within an enclosed space. |
What is a balometer is and why is it essential? In the world of HVAC and indoor air quality management, precision is key. |
