When the above research on costs and benefits is read together the case for Passivhaus in the UK is robust. The approach to both our new buildings and the retrofit of our existing stock in the UK must be ambitious and inclusive. The Passivhaus Standard gives us a range of approaches for our journey to Net Zero, making it widely applicable across all building typologies.

Overall, this study has shown that building to the Passivhaus standard in the UK is not only the most appropriate choice for delivering high-quality buildings, but it is also the best choice for the environment and population at large.
