This paper reports the findings of a project to assess the costs and benefits of adopting environment-friendly construction practices for social rented housing in Scotland. Two contrasted dwelling specifications — one for a conventional building (the Control) and one for an environmentally responsible building (Eco-Type 1) — are compared using Life Cycle Analysis and Life Cycle Costing methodologies. An assessment is made of the environmental and economic implications of adopting environmentally conscious construction practices in social rented housing. It is concluded that the provision of environmentally responsible dwellings could bring large-scale reductions in the environmental burden of housing, and economic savings for housing providers and tenants over the life cycle of a dwelling with only a small increase in capital costs. |
