Developer Hill Group<\/a> has joined forces with Bioregional Homes<\/a> to deliver affordable zero-carbon homes using modern methods of construction (MMC)<\/h2>\n

The partnership will embrace Bioregional Homes\u2019 One Planet Living\u00ae principles \u2013 building affordable zero-carbon homes, from sustainable materials using modern methods of construction in developments where recycling, food growing and biodiversity<\/a> are encouraged.<\/p>\n

The developments will comprise a mix of market-sale housing and discounted market-sale homes, so local people can afford to buy somewhere to live in their area.<\/p>\n

The joint venture will aim to widen access to home ownership by ensuring that reduced house prices are protected permanently through community governance structures.<\/p>\n

Bioregional is a sustainability charity and social enterprise founded more than 25 years ago that has an impressive track record in creating locally affordable and sustainable developments<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2018Beautiful, affordable, net-zero carbon\u2019<\/h3>\n

Sue Riddlestone, chief executive of Bioregional Homes, said: \u201cWe are delighted to be working with Hill and have been very impressed with their ethos, aspirations and strong capability as housebuilders. Together with Hill, we want to show that beautiful, affordable, net-zero carbon development can be done.<\/p>\n

\u201cRight now, the global pandemic is occupying our minds and threatening lives and livelihoods. But the climate crisis, the ecological crisis, and the housing crisis<\/a> have not gone away.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to achieve a net-zero carbon economy within the next 10 years \u2013 which means all new homes must be net-zero from now.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the same time, we want to create homes that are genuinely affordable to local people on local salaries. We are keen to engage with local communities to get this right, and to make sure that any houses that get built will contribute to making their neighbourhoods better.<\/p>\n

Andy Hill, chief executive of Hill Group, added: \u201cThis is a very exciting move for Hill as we continue to evolve the way we deliver homes for the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to focusing on a number of already identified projects with Bioregional Homes. We are also keen to develop a range of inspirational house types which will be energy efficient and reflect One Planet Living principles.\u201d<\/p>\n
