Net Zero Carbon Development Plan Document - Regulation 19

Representation ID: 72194

Received: 08/06/2022

Respondent: Warwick District Labour Party

Representation Summary:

DPD should require solar panels as default on all developments to reflect the latest technology which enables successful installation even on oblique roofs. The clear WDC objective should be to encourage installation on all roofs.

WDC should apply higher standards than the anticipated 2025 National future Homes Standard if legal? Can this be done where the trade-off costs v carbon emission reduction is reasonable (whole life cost analysis)?

The DPD should explicitly allow the LPA to vary such standards as technology and experience evolve

All plans (new and retro) to include reskilling/upskilling of existing workers in clean/green and apprenticeship funds.
