Capital Projects
The sustainable construction or refurbishment of buildings and infrastructure is fundamental to achieving King's vision for sustainability by driving a reduction in operational impacts including costs and carbon, whilst providing enriched teaching and learning facilities.
King's has produced a guidance document outlining a framework for the delivery of sustainable design and construction projects, to support the policy objective to "manage activities, buildings and estates to promote environmental sustainability, to conserve natural resources and prevent environmental pollution to bring about a continual improvement in environmental performance".
All construction or refurbishment projects, regardless of size, are expected to consider and support the requirements set out in the Sustainability Guidance-Capital Projects Brief, and wherever possible seek to enhance the sustainability performance of our estate.
