The use of renewable energy and offsetting of the embodied carbon makes HERE + NOW truly Net Zero Carbon.

Our energy provider, Total, sources 100% renewable electricity for both buildings.

Our three-star Fitwell rating recognizes that wellness is at the centre of HERE + NOW’s design, development and operations.

RESET® Air certification Is the world’s first and only dedicated air quality monitoring standard.

BREEAM Outstanding demonstrates best practice in building construction, whilst minimising environmental impact.

Recycled and sustainably sourced materials recur in imaginative ways across the HERE + NOW development.

NOW
HERE
THIS.

HERE + NOW offers sustainability and ESG credentials – beyond the expectations of today’s occupiers.

Sustainability consultants Element Four have ensured both buildings maximise HERE + NOW’s commitment to sustainability and wellbeing, to create pioneering workspaces.

NOW is part of the first UK scheme to achieve BREEAM Outstanding, Fitwel 3 and RESET Air certifications. HERE will offer lower ground floor secure storage for 68 cycles, seven electric bikes, two hand cycles and five e-scooters with charge points.

NET ZERO CARBON

HERE + NOW is one of the UK’s first redevelopments targeting net zero for both operational and embodied carbon. Whole life emissions calculated at 6,916 tCO2e will be offset by the planting of domestic woodland. Good Energy provides 100% renewable electricity to the buildings and offsets carbon from gas usage in NOW.

ENERGY

Energy for HERE + NOW is sourced from Total, with electricity usage matched to 100% renewables (solar, wind, hydro and biofuel). Energy efficiency in HERE has been improved with a new, fully electric heating and cooling system. Emissions from gas usage in NOW are neutralised by Good Energy through investment in verified carbon reduction projects.

FITWEL 3*

HERE + NOW has a three-star Fitwel certification – the highest rating – recognising the emphasis placed on health and wellness in the design, development and operation of the buildings.

RESET

RESET Air is the world’s first and only dedicated ongoing air quality monitoring standard. Through the use of live, sensor-driven performance data, RESET monitors air quality parameters that affect long-term health, wellbeing and productivity, including CO2 levels, VOCs and particulates from traffic and local industry.

BREEAM

HERE + NOW has been awarded the highest level of sustainability certification – BREEAM Outstanding. BREEAM measures the overall sustainability of the building, across a number of environmental factors including energy, water, waste and transport.

MATERIALS

Materials choices at HERE + NOW prioritise sustainability. All new timber is FSC certified. Where possible, we have reused and repurposed materials and optimised, rather than replaced.
