| JMA is particularly interested in renewable energy products Cheltenham-based Jeremy Moore Associates (JMA) has decided to join the national training and networking organisation to build knowledge and keep pace with modern construction methods, affecting environmental sustainability and energy efficiency. Key team members will attend 'sustainable buildings and services' courses, in partnership with the 'Green Register' organisation. JMA, based in Wellington Street, is a specialist cost consultancy and project manager and, in recent years, has seen an industry emphasis on green building techniques. As a result of the training, JMA will gain full membership of the 'Green Register', demonstrating the company's commitment to sustainable building and allowing networking with other like-minded professionals. MD Jeremy Moore says: "We are particularly interested in renewable energy products, solar power, wind power, sustainable forest management, natural ventilation and carbon neutral products so that future generations are not prejudiced through human contributed climate change." JMA has already been involved in several projects with an environmental focus including building a primate enclosure at Bristol Zoo, made purely from timber sourced from a sustainable forest. Other projects saw JMA use natural ventilation in a church restoration, install a neutral carbon biomass boiler into a new education centre and recommend ground source heat pumping for a large bespoke house. Currently JMA are managing a project at Cowley, near Cheltenham, which involves geo-thermal heating and seedam roofing. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Construction News :: home page |
