Question group
What evidence is available to improve the health, safety and environmental standard of buildings, and protect building users
Questions in this group:
What evidence is available to improve the health, safety and environmental standard of buildings, and protect building users
What are the building safety implications of widespread adoption (including retrofitting) across the built environment from renewable energy and energy storage solutions within/in close proximity to occupied buildings? This includes battery storage, electric vehicles and personal light electric vehicles.
