Cundall WLCA team helps Nebula Development save 686 tonnes of CO₂e. Milton Park, the UK’s largest single ownership innovation community, proudly announces the completion of the £40 million Nebula development. This milestone highlights the significant contributions of our whole life carbon assessment (WLCA) team, who meticulously calculated the embodied carbon from RIBA Stage 2 to Practical Completion. Nebula’s design and construction focused on sustainability, utilising glue-laminated (glulam) structural timber beams instead of steel. This resulted in an impressive upfront embodied carbon saving of 686 tonnes of CO₂e. The development aims to achieve BREEAM ‘Excellent’ and EPC A energy efficiency standards. Surplus wood from the site was donated to RAW Workshop, where it was transformed into educational materials and new products, further enhancing Nebula’s environmental and social impact.

Refined milestones for our Zero Carbon Design 2030 goal In 2023, we announced that by the end of this decade, we will only work on projects that meet our zero carbon design criteria. To monitor our progress towards our goal, we set an interim target of achieving zero carbon design criteria on 25% of our projects by the end of 2024. While we have made progress towards achieving this interim target through the delivery of our consultancy services and some of our design projects, the experience and feedback has highlighted the need to acknowledge the differing levels of influence and control Cundall can contribute through its consultancy and design services.
