HollenPlus was appointed to construct a comprehensive Sustainable Design and Construction Statement (SDCS) for a major development application in London.
Designed to ensure full planning compliance, the statement demonstrates direct alignment with the relevant London Borough’s Local Plan policies and comply with the latest National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).
This statement showcases how the development supports sustainable policies under the thematic chapters of Infrastructure & Heat Resilience, Water Efficiency, Sustainable Drainage, Urban Greening & Biodiversity, Air Quality and Environmental Management.
Adhering to London Plan, the statement also fully embeds the Energy Hierarchy, striving to Be Lean, Be Clean, Be Green and Be Seen to ensure maximum operational efficiency and minimise life-cycle carbon emissions and proactively address climate policies.
With all things considered and along with supporting complementary technical submissions, a Sustainable Design and Construction Statement clearly demonstrates compliance, addresses officer expectations and helps secure planning approval from the Local Council.
