Working with the main contractor, Graham Construction, and sub contractor MSL Engineering Ltd, Bryden Wood made extensive use of BIM to solve the complex challenges to mechanical and electrical (M&E) engineers, such as heating large spaces, solving significant air handling challenges, mitigating the risk of condensation from the pools and managing CO. 2. levels efficiently in exercise areas.. Collaborative working.

Her expertise and vision offer valuable guidance for professionals at all levels of the sector, highlighting the urgent need for a collective effort towards a more sustainable, efficient, and resilient built environment..Learn more about Bryden Wood's Design to Value approach.In order to avoid catastrophic climate impacts, it’s essential that we tackle the toughest parts of the decarbonisation challenge, applying innovative solutions to those tough to decarbonise parts of the economy.

We need to create cleaner, greener responses in order to overcome the environmental damage being caused by coal-fired power plants, industries like aviation and shipping, and liquid fuels such as oil and gas.Due to the site and land use challenges posed by wind and solar power, attempting to meet our vast energy needs with renewable technologies alone would be prohibitively difficult.As a result, we’ll need help from complementary, advanced heat solutions to bend the curve on carbon emissions and meet our net zero goals.. One of the biggest decarbonisation challenges we face, and one of the biggest opportunities presented to us, comes in the form of repowering coal power plants.

Incredibly, the coal-fired capacity being used in the world today is emitting around 15 billion tonnes of carbon emissions each year, representing almost half of all our carbon emissions.Bryden Wood is working alongside non-profit TerraPraxis, as part of the Repowering Coal Initiative.

We’re developing transformative design and construction solutions aimed at retrofitting the existing coal-fired power plants for suitability with new nuclear, advanced heat solutions, while still retaining the substantial societal and economic value of the existing power plant infrastructure.

The process will be both highly efficient and cost-effective, overcoming existing viability barriers and creating a realistic path to sustainable, reliable energy for areas of the world still reliant on coal-fired power.. Terra Praxis: new nuclear is key to helping achieve net zero.While there, he engaged Bryden Wood and together they developed the Front End Factory, a collaborative endeavour to explore how to turn purpose and strategy into the right projects – which paved the way for Design to Value.

He is committed to the betterment of lives through individual and collective endeavours.. As well as his business and pharmaceutical experience, Dyson is Professor of Human Enterprise at the University of Birmingham, focussing on project management, business strategy and collaboration.. Additionally, he is a qualified counsellor with a private practice and looks to bring the understanding of human behaviour into business and projects..
