Posted on: March 9th, 2023 by masteruser

Michael Gove, Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities visited our multi-award winning development Springfield Meadows, in Southmoor, Oxfordshire last week. He was joined by the local MP, David Johnston OBE. The development of 25 climate positive homes, is built to be better than net-zero in terms of embodied carbon and aims to be net-zero energy in use.

Michael Gove said “We want beautiful, well designed, and greener neighbourhoods and the community I’ve seen in Springfield Meadows is something we wish to replicate right across the country. By modernising the planning system, our reforms will create more places people are proud to call home.”

Jon Di-Stefano, Greencore’s CEO, commented, “We were delighted to welcome both Michael Gove and David Johnston to our Springfield Meadows development. It’s exceptionally pleasing to have the government taking such a keen interest in our climate positive homes. The structure of a typical Greencore home is better than net zero in terms of embodied carbon, they are also highly energy efficient and can generate more energy than they use.”

Congratulations to our Co-Founder, Growth & Innovation Director Ian Pritchett on being selected to be on The Climate Champions’ Power List Award produced by Homes UK and Unlock Net Zero Live.
