MEP contributes up to 50% of embodied carbon in commercial buildings and up to 50% embodied carbon in retrofits over the lifetime of a building. Join MEP embodied carbon leaders Dr Anastasia Mylona, Technical Director at CIBSE, and Panu Pasanen, CEO at One Click LCA, for a discussion about the data behind MEP embodied carbon, what you can do about it in your day-to-day and strategic work, and how to advocate for MEP carbon reduction with market stakeholders. Generous time will be allotted for a live question-and-answer session at the end of this talk.

Anastasia and Panu will explore:

  1. Why MEP carbon is so high — including the research behind it

  2. How embodied carbon is the next frontier after operational carbon

  3. What elements contribute to MEP carbon

  4. How to reduce MEP carbon — from refrigerants to fabric-first design

  5. How to convince financial stakeholders to care about MEP carbon

What would be interesting to discuss is also how can designers tackle the supply chain in producing more MEP data. Essentially, how can we bake embodied carbon specific language into requirements?
