Why data is vital for the industry to achieve net-zero

Achieving net-zero carbon emissions has become a top priority for construction companies.

As part of a UK government strategy set out last year, all new buildings will be required to operate at net-zero by 2030 – meaning the amount of carbon emissions associated with a building’s usage and construction stages must equal zero or negative.

Understanding the carbon emissions from a specific material or product involves continuous measurement throughout its lifecycle. This measurement needs to start from the point of specification for building materials through their design, purchasing, manufacturing, distribution and installation. The assessment then needs to continue through to maintenance, repair, reuse and, finally, recycling of those materials.

Pam mae data’n hanfodol i'r diwydiant gyflawni sero-net

Mae allyriadau carbon sero-net sy'n codi wedi dod yn brif flaenoriaeth i gwmnïau adeiladu.


Yn rhan o strategaeth llywodraeth y DU a nodwyd y llynedd, bydd gofyn i bob adeilad newydd weithredu ar sero-net erbyn 2030 – sy'n golygu bod rhaid i faint o allyriadau carbon sy'n gysylltiedig â chamau defnyddio ac adeiladu adeilad fod yn sero neu’n negyddol.


Mae deall yr allyriadau carbon o ddeunydd neu gynnyrch penodol yn golygu mesur parhaus drwy gydol ei gylch oes. Mae angen i'r mesur hwn ddechrau o'r pwynt manyleb ar gyfer deunyddiau adeiladu drwy eu dylunio, eu prynu, eu gweithgynhyrchu, eu dosbarthu a'u gosod. Yna, mae angen i'r asesiad barhau i gynnal a chadw, atgyweirio, ailddefnyddio ac, yn olaf, ailgylchu'r deunyddiau hynny.

Rewilding the Sky

Can a skyscraper leave a positive legacy in the strata of geology?

‘Rewilding the sky’ describes new altruism in which we can share our environment and spaces with other living beings - both physical and digital.

The notion of ‘Rewilding the Sky’ emerges from the rise of taller, denser skyscrapers which reflect both our desires and anxieties. The rooftop garden is now a popular trend in landscape architecture design.

Dad-ddofi’r Awyr

A all nendwr adael etifeddiaeth bositif yn strata daeareg?

Mae ‘Dad-ddofi’r Awyr’ yn disgrifio anhunanoldeb newydd lle gallwn rannu ein hamgylchedd a’n lleoedd gyda bodau byw eraill – yn gorfforol ac yn ddigidol.

Daw’r syniad o ‘Ddad-ddofi’r Awyr’ o ganlyniad i ymddangosiad nendyrau talach, dwysach sy’n adlewyrchu ein dyheadau a’n pryderon. Bellach, mae gerddi pen tŷ yn nodwedd boblogaidd ym maes dylunio pensaernïaeth tirlun.

A new study has shown Methane is four times more sensitive to global warming than previously thought

The result helps to explain the rapid growth in methane in recent years and suggests that, if left unchecked, methane related warming will escalate in the decades to come.

The growth of this greenhouse gas – which over a 20 year timespan is more than 80 times as potent than carbon dioxide – had been slowing since the turn of the millennium but since 2007 has undergone a rapid rise, with measurements from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration recording it passing 1,900 parts a billion last year, nearly triple pre-industrial levels

Mae astudiaeth newydd yn dangos fod Methan bedair gwaith yn fwy sensitif i gynhesu byd-eang nag y meddylid yn flaenorol.

Mae’r canlyniad yn helpu i esbonio’r twf cyflym mewn methan yn y blynyddoedd diweddar ac mae’n awgrymu, os na chaiff hynny ei stopio, bydd cynhesu’n gysylltiedig â methan yn dwysáu yn y degawdau i ddod.

Roedd twf y nwy tŷ gwydr hwn - sydd, dros oes o ugain mlynedd, yn fwy na 80 gwaith yn fwy nerthol na charbon deuocsid – wedi bod yn arafu ers troad y mileniwm ond er 2007 mae wedi cynyddu’n gyflym, gyda mesuriadau gan Weinyddiaeth Genedlaethol Gefnforol ac Atmosfferig y DU yn cofnodi iddo fod yn uwch na 1,900 rhan i’r biliwn y llynedd, sy’n fwy na theirgwaith yn fwy na lefelau cyn-ddiwydiannol.

A spacecraft measuring Earth's warming 'greenhouse' effect in its greatest ever detail will be built in the UK.

It will monitor far-infrared radiation coming up from our planet's surface.

It's this particular type of light that makes molecules of gases such as carbon dioxide and water vapour vibrate, leading to a heating of the atmosphere - a key aspect of climate change.

Its Plastic Free July 💛

The UK throws away an estimated 295 billion pieces of plastic waste every year!

" Mr Webb stored all the plastic waste he threw in the bin for 1yr - a total of 4,490 pieces of plastic.

93% of the plastic he used in a year was single-use

two thirds was used to package, wrap and consume food,

A report found some 70% was not currently recyclable

Based on national collection rates of recyclable material

10% of the plastic would be recycled

4% recycled at UK recycling facilities

The rest exported or burned

Mae'r DU yn taflu tua 295 biliwn o ddarnau o wastraff plastig bob blwyddyn!


"Storiodd Mr Webb yr holl wastraff plastig a daflodd yn y bin dros flwyddyn - cyfanswm o 4,490 darn o blastig.

Eitemau plastig untro oedd 93% o'r plastig a ddefnyddiodd mewn blwyddyn,
a defnyddiwyd dwy ran o dair ohonynt i becynnu, lapio a bwyta bwyd.

Canfu adroddiad nad oedd modd ailgylchu tua 70% ohonynt ar hyn o bryd

Ar sail cyfraddau casglu cenedlaethol yn achos deunydd ailgylchadwy,
byddai 10% o'r plastig yn cael ei ailgylchu
4% yn cael ei ailgylchu yng nghyfleusterau ailgylchu'r DU
Byddai’r gweddill yn cael ei allforio neu ei losgi

In Construction News: Wates has launched Wates Retrofit aimed at supporting its maintenance programme in upgrading the energy efficiency of homes and other properties.

The launch of Wates Retrofit comes two years after Wates Living Space began working with social landlords and housing associations to retrofit ageing housing stock. The service launched in response to Government targets, which demand all social housing properties have Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) bands of at least C by 2030.

Through the Wates Retrofit service, Wates Living Space supports customers with funding applications, including the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF), Green Homes Grant LAD Scheme, as well as accessing Energy Company Obligation (ECO) Funding for clients.

“There are approximately five million social housing properties in the UK; some are new and inherently efficient, but the majority are decades old. Every single one requires an individual design with necessary property changes, and appropriate and cost-effective energy efficiency measures for that individual property. The task at hand is vast, but the knowledge and best practice we have built up positions us as the perfect partner for our customers, many of whom are themselves navigating new challenges when it comes to carbon reduction.”David Morgan, executive managing director of Wates Property Services

Yn ôl Construction News: mae Wates wedi lansio Wates Retrofit gyda'r nod o gefnogi ei raglen cynnal a chadw i uwchraddio effeithlonrwydd ynni cartrefi ac eiddo eraill.

Daw lansiad Wates Retrofit ddwy flynedd ar ôl i Wates Living Space ddechrau gweithio gyda landlordiaid cymdeithasol a chymdeithasau tai i ôl-osod stoc tai sy’n heneiddio. Lansiwyd y gwasanaeth mewn ymateb i dargedau’r Llywodraeth, sy’n mynnu bod gan bob eiddo tai cymdeithasol fandiau Tystysgrif Perfformiad Ynni (EPC) o C o leiaf erbyn 2030.

Trwy wasanaeth Wates Retrofit, mae Wates Living Space yn cefnogi cwsmeriaid gyda cheisiadau am gyllid, gan gynnwys y Gronfa Datgarboneiddio Tai Cymdeithasol (SHDF), Cynllun Grant Cartrefi Gwyrdd awdurdodau lleol, yn ogystal â chael mynediad at Gyllid Rhwymedigaeth Cwmnïau Ynni (ECO) ar gyfer cleientiaid.

“Mae tua phum miliwn o eiddo tai cymdeithasol yn y DU; mae rhai yn newydd ac yn gynhenid ​​effeithlon, ond mae'r mwyafrif yn ddegawdau oed. Mae pob un yn gofyn am ddyluniad unigol gyda newidiadau eiddo angenrheidiol, a mesurau effeithlonrwydd ynni priodol a chost-effeithiol ar gyfer yr eiddo unigol hwnnw. Mae’r dasg dan sylw yn enfawr, ond mae’r wybodaeth a’r arferion gorau rydym ni wedi’u meithrin yn ein gwneud yn bartner perffaith ar gyfer ein cwsmeriaid, y mae llawer ohonynt eu hunain yn wynebu heriau newydd o ran lleihau allyriadau carbon.” David Morgan, rheolwr gyfarwyddwr gweithredol Gwasanaethau Eiddo Wates
