SDCC is committed to meeting national energy targets through a broader ‘holistic’ view of sustainability, encompassing water, waste, mobility, spatial planning and energy. This motion seeks to have the Dublin Mountain flagship project built to meet the environmental standards of the ‘Living Building Challenge’ an international sustainable building certification. These standards will showcase our counties commitment to sustainable development through energy systems that provide 105% of the buildings requirements, the use of non-toxic ecologically restorative materials, sources its own water and deals with its own waste. Following other buildings procured by SDCC including Ballyroan Library and Valhalla, Clondalkin, SDCC will be setting the standard for sustainable construction not only in the County, but Dublin and beyond.
