This Information Paper examines how government targets for carbon dioxide reduction can act as a driver for economic regeneration. It provides recommendations to regeneration professionals on the opportunities and pitfalls of delivering low-carbon regeneration projects, as well as best practice case studies of projects in the UK and Europe. Targets for reducing carbon emissions can be a driver for economic regeneration and a more sustainable approach to construction and the built environment can create 'green jobs' - strengthening the construction sector while addressing social issues such as fuel poverty and unemployment. Examples of successful regeneration from Europe demonstrate the links between energy/emission reductions and social improvements, and highlight the most effective interventions.
