10 years later: A proven path to nearly zero energy buildings
A decade ago, Jose Castilla, Partner at Cundall Spain, pioneered a methodology for designing nearly zero energy buildings. His structured approach - prioritising passive design, energy efficiency, and renewable integration - was remarkably ahead of its time. Today, with stricter regulations and urgent climate targets, these principles are more relevant than ever.
In this conference talk from 2016, Jose outlines the step-by-step strategy that has helped reduce energy consumption in office buildings by up to 87%. What was once an innovative theory has now become a proven practice - a testament to Cundall's leadership in sustainable engineering.
