Abstract

Disused buildings on a site on Hilbre are to be renovated by the British Art and Design Association (BADA) for use as an Art and Science Study Centre, with an overall guiding theme of sustainability. The art / science activities including education, research, and art production, related to ideas and practice around the topics of sustainability. Other buildings within the site boundaries will be occupied by Hilbre Bird Observatory (HiBO) and the Friends of Hilbre (FoH).
This report describes the sustainability strategy for the centre. It describes the physical and practical sustainability aspects of the project and provides recommendations for refurbishment work to the buildings, the use of resources, and gives broad details of the energy systems including generation and provision of heat and electricity. Also covered are recommendations for water and waste systems. The approach to and implementation of these aspects of the project will greatly affect its qualities of sustainability. The report also provides information on the general topic of sustainability and how it can be measured or assessed on Hilbre.
Section 1 provides a brief description of the buildings and site, followed by Section 2 which provides information on aspects of sustainability that are particularly relevant to the buildings and site. Section 3 outlines in some detail the proposals for the renovation of the buildings and Section 4 describes the renewable energy systems. Sections 5, 6 and 7 cover water, waste, and materials respectively. Section 8 summarises the schedule of provision of services.
Section 9 provides general information on the wider aspects of sustainability and is intended to provide context and a reference for the future development of the Centre. Section 10 discusses various methods of measuring sustainability, and Section 11 summarises the recommendations of this report.
