The document discusses sustainable infrastructure and carbon reduction in higher education. It covers historical context, future funding plans, implications for carbon reduction and space management, and case studies of low carbon buildings and campus master plans. Speakers provide perspectives from architecture, planning, engineering and discuss taking a holistic long-term approach to carbon reduction strategies.

SUSTAINABLE INFRASTRUCTURE AND CARBON REDUCTION: 10 th September 2009 The impact on Higher Education Estates
The journey so far: The historical context and the future of funding Rod Mallinder University of Brighton
What do we mean by Sustainability ? Historical context Life cycle costing Financial sustainability (Capital and Revenue) Impact on the environment ( BREEAM for HE, CRC, DEC’s, Carbon Plans)
Future of funding ? What are the Government’s plans for HE ? Will there be any capital for 2011-14 ? What will be the effect if there’s a change of Government ?
Future of funding ? Current thinking…………… Some capital but at a reduced level Capital Investment Framework (CIF 2) Greater emphasis on sustainability Linkages between CO2 emissions and management of space
Future of funding ? Implications for institutions in terms of CIF 2 Carbon reduction Carbon plans (beware the base point) Draft guidance – consultation document Space Management How will performance be measured? What guidance – review of SMG tools (AUDE project funded by LGM)

Strategic planning and adding value: The planner’s point of view Emma Andrews BNP Paribas Real Estate
Defining Sustainability ‘ Sustainable development is the core principle underpinning planning. At the heart of sustainable development is the simple idea of ensuring a better quality of life for everyone now and for the future generations’ (Para 3, PPS1 ‘Planning and Climate Change 2007 )
Government Targets
Planning Context Legislation Local Development Framework (LDF) Regional Spatial Strategy (RSS) Development Plan (Statutory regional & local planning policies) Planning Policy Guidance and Statements
Planning Policy Renewable energy targets Sustainable design Water management Waste management Reuse of materials / sustainable construction Location of development Accessibility – reducing car dependency Planning by checklist
Development Control Information requirements BREEAM Planning conditions S106 obligations Understanding your Local Authority London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, Keppel Street
Practical Steps Understand your planning policy context …. have your say? Nurturing a relationship with Local Planning Authority (LPA) and elected Members Property / Estate Strategy - Masterplanning / Planning Brief 4. Early engagement with LPA and local community in developing application proposals to secure consent 5. Protecting planning permissions

Carbon Reduction Strategies: The need for a holistic whole-life approach The Challenge: To respond to the carbon reduction agenda and the risks it places on future funding streams in the most effective way possible The Proposition: Only by taking a long term view – a holistic whole life approach – can maximum advantage be taken of the opportunities that exist for carbon reduction
Carbon Reduction Strategies: The Breadth of Opportunity Potential for Carbon Reduction (TCO2) Concept and Master Planning Design and Implementation Operations and Maintenance Behavioural Change A wide range of opportunities exist at all stages of the lifecycle There can be strong interaction between the lifecycle stages Covers Scope 1, 2 and 3
