» Constructing Excellence in Wales 2010 Award for Mariners Quay
Added 12/07/2010
Mariners Quay is in one of the most deprived areas of Wales and as a Code Level 5 housing scheme is a Welsh Assembly Government pilot project. RVW Consulting have worked with Leadbitter and its stakeholders Newport City Council Newport Unlimited and the Government embraced the low carbon target from the outset. Mariners Quay is at the forefront of implementation of Site Waste Management Plans, Energy and Co2/emissions Reporting. A total of 12,000 m3 of waste will be generated by the end of the project; so far around 88 percent of it has been diverted from landfill whilst over 60 percent has been re-used on site. The energy usage at Mariner’s Quay is monitored daily; this includes reading all statutory meters to keep an accurate account of the amount of energy being used; the data is then analysed to find the peaks and troughs of energy use. Once established, targets are set for the following month to help ensure levels of improvements in the amount of energy used. The project reached out into the community and there was intent throughout to create a place that people would want to visit.
