We have a so called zero-carbon eco-residential development near us that is going to even have electric points for charging electric cars,
and a few electric cars will even be provided for communal use!
One thing I have noticed is that eco
zero-carbon-neutral homes look horrible and will look even worse when the timber boarding goes grey and mouldy.
From 2016, under new Building Regulations, all new homes will be required to be zero-carbon.
This will add around £43,000 to the cost of the average new home at today's prices.
