Clean energy & housing delivery are not in conflict — but only if design & planning process is fit to handle both simultaneously.
The question is not if we build greener homes. It is do we have the governance systems to do it at pace, at scale, & without compromising quality.

The gov’s aim is 1.5m homes by 2029. But the solar requirement is 40% of GFA & the HBF estimates 60% of homes can’t meet this. That means individual assessment. Adding to a stretched planning system, without a process or resourcing, may create a bottleneck that kills delivery.

The Future Homes Standard is here. From 2028, every new home in England must have solar panels & a heat pump. No gas. No exceptions (almost).
This is not a tweak to building regs. It is a shift in what “a new home” means.

A Para 84(e) home in rural Wiltshire has been approved, with significant weight given to the independent design review process in the officer’s report @JB_DRP
The lessons apply far beyond rural sites — from strategic housing to major infrastructure.

Fantastic to see The Box, #Plymouth making headlines for its £244m boost to the local economy. The Design Review Panel (designreviewpanel.co.uk) was pleased to review this pre-planning — a great example of how, independent design review supports lasting quality.
