How to Homestar v5: Carbon counting

Are you ready for Homestar v5?

In 2022 we are transitioning to Homestar v5 – the most ambitious version of Homestar ever. Homestar v5 will help provide healthy, cosy homes for thousands of families, and play a much needed role in slashing climate change pollution.

Among the significant upgrades to Homestar v5, there are three things designers will need to know: accounting for carbon, continuous mechanical ventilation and thermal bridges. In this special webinar, we’re focussing on embodied carbon.

Our expert speaker Brian Berg, is Manager/lead of the Carbon Neutral Housing team at Kāinga Ora. We’ll be discussing: :

• What embodied carbon is
• The legal and policy requirements you need to know about
• How to easily calculate carbon in your project
