came to prominence because they were a smaller.

Through her insightful conversation with Adam, Jennifer paints a compelling picture of the future of construction—an industry poised for radical change through leadership, innovation, and collaboration.Her expertise and vision offer valuable guidance for professionals at all levels of the sector, highlighting the urgent need for a collective effort towards a more sustainable, efficient, and resilient built environment..

Learn more about Bryden Wood's Design to Value approach.In order to avoid catastrophic climate impacts, it’s essential that we tackle the toughest parts of the decarbonisation challenge, applying innovative solutions to those tough to decarbonise parts of the economy.We need to create cleaner, greener responses in order to overcome the environmental damage being caused by coal-fired power plants, industries like aviation and shipping, and liquid fuels such as oil and gas.Due to the site and land use challenges posed by wind and solar power, attempting to meet our vast energy needs with renewable technologies alone would be prohibitively difficult.

As a result, we’ll need help from complementary, advanced heat solutions to bend the curve on carbon emissions and meet our net zero goals.. One of the biggest decarbonisation challenges we face, and one of the biggest opportunities presented to us, comes in the form of repowering coal power plants.Incredibly, the coal-fired capacity being used in the world today is emitting around 15 billion tonnes of carbon emissions each year, representing almost half of all our carbon emissions.

Bryden Wood is working alongside non-profit TerraPraxis, as part of the Repowering Coal Initiative.

We’re developing transformative design and construction solutions aimed at retrofitting the existing coal-fired power plants for suitability with new nuclear, advanced heat solutions, while still retaining the substantial societal and economic value of the existing power plant infrastructure.Facilitating a Circular Economy and Repurposing Infrastructure:.

Platform II supports the concept of a circular economy in construction.By understanding the provenance of every component, it becomes viable to repurpose them in different assets.

For example, an office building could be transformed into a healthcare centre or an apartment block as needs change..The Construction Innovation Hub's.
