The Sustainable Developer Guide was created to inform and inspire developers and to stimulate more sustainable design and construction in Nottinghamshire.
It was prepared by Nottinghamshire councils, working with the Environment Agency and the Newark and Sherwood Energy Agency.
The guide includes:
- recommendations on a range of key topics (including water use and drainage, building design, energy use, waste and transport)
- directions to the most relevant sources of practical information (publications and websites)
- case studies showing innovative new development that incorporates sustainable elements (including Sherwood Energy Village and the University of Nottingham's Jubilee Campus).
