Renewable Technology

Make efficient use of the Earth’s natural resources to heat and ventilate a building; produce and store electricity; and make use of natural water reserves.

Renewable technologies are central to meeting Net Zero Carbon targets in construction. At Mesh, we work with technologies that make efficient use of the Earth’s natural resources to heat and ventilate a building; produce and store electricity; and make use of natural water reserves. Once a building’s fabric and airtightness have been optimised, we introduce renewable technology to help eliminate, or heavily reduce, the need for fossil fuel use on site.

Each elected technology is tailored for the application, while the type, sizing, placement, and control are all quantified and specified. Long gone are the days of vague system specifications. Success today relies heavily on understanding technical detail early in the design process to ensure the correct non-fossil fuel technical solutions are chosen.

Some of the renewable technologies we work with include:
