Your church and Net Zero: a practical guide

Making your church sustainable: a practical guide to getting to Net Zero is the title of a talk at CRE 25 given by Apostolos Petrakis and Jack Boyn (pictured) of Archangel Architects/Church Build (11am, Wed 15 Oct).

It’s one of dozens of free talks and presentations at CRE 25. For a full list click here.

Based on a recently published book with the same title, in this session you will:

  • Be equipped with principles and resources for delivering change to buildings, including the theological and missional aspects of sustainability
  • Be shown an overview of the technologies available and changes that can be made to move away from fossil fuels and reduce energy use
  • Learn about the processes involved working with experts to determine the most appropriate solution for your church building and navigating the permissions process in making changes (planning, listed building consent, faculty etc)
  • Be shown case studies of churches that have made sustainability improvements to their buildings
  • Be given the opportunity to participate in a brief Q+A session

Archangel Architects, exhibiting as Church Build at CRE 25, have worked for more than 20 years to design and deliver excellent buildings.

‘As a team, we work collaboratively from our studio near Cambridge,’ said Church Build’s Nigel Walter. ‘We believe the best buildings are created from a close partnership between client and architect. We like to think of our role as being your critical friend: at your side to support and guide, but also there to question.

‘When choosing an architect, what you are really buying is not a product (any half-decent architect can deliver a completed building), nor even a service, but a relationship; and we’re looking for a matching degree of engagement and enthusiasm in our clients.’
