ENERGY

Reducing the carbon intensity of our energy eco system is a huge challenge. As demand rises globally and more energy needs to be generated, we must ensure that what we produce is actually cleaner. Action to reverse climate change means that the energy produced must minimise CO2 emissions.

With this as our aim, d3associates is building more sustainable energy infrastructure by specifying, designing and delivering options that produce cleaner, greener energy. This means we can help, if you’re looking to reduce the carbon emissions associated with your processes, structures and buildings to adopt a pathway towards Net Zero.

Working in consultation with businesses, universities and churches through to public institutions like local authorities, NHS trusts and social housing groups, d3associates are specialists in energy infrastructure with an impressive track record.

From managing large-scale industrial decarbonisation projects, designing district heating systems and planning community-based buildings, we are uniquely positioned to support sustainability in construction thanks to our joint energy and architectural expertise.

DISTRICT & COMMUNAL ENERGY

District energy is generated close to where it is required and can include heating, cooling and electricity. The systems d3associates design allow both heat and electricity to be used efficiently and help reduce energy costs, lower carbon emissions, and improve neighbourhood resilience.
