Leading global engineering, design and advisorypractice Buro Happold has achieved PAS 2080 certification for\u202fCarbon Management in Infrastructure and Built Environment<\/em> from BSI, reinforcing its commitment to helping public sector organisations deliver low-carbon, resilient infrastructure in line with national and local climate goals. <\/p>\n\n\n

PAS 2080 is the globally recognised standard for managing whole-life carbon in the built environment. Developed by BSI, it provides a framework for reducing carbon emissions across the entire lifecycle of infrastructure \u2013 from strategic planning and design to construction, operation, and decommissioning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur PAS 2080 certification is an important component in Buro Happold\u2019s award-winning five step design thinking approach. The approach combines whole-life asset thinking that balances cost, quality and carbon. Our strategies mitigate climate resilience and minimise the loss of nature alongside standardised designs optimised through computationally advanced analysis proven to unlock new solutions.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis means we can support clients in making informed, carbon-conscious decisions from the earliest stages of project development. It underscores Buro Happold\u2019s commitment to compliance with evolving policy and funding requirements for central government and devolved administrations, as well as transparent reporting and accountability aligned with ESG and climate action frameworks.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shahm Barhom, Group Product Certification Director at BSI<\/strong>, said: \u201cWe\u2019re pleased to congratulate Buro Happold on achieving certification to PAS 2080. This achievement reflects a strong commitment to managing and reducing whole-life carbon across the built environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBy aligning with this globally recognised standard, Buro Happold is demonstrating leadership in the transition to low-carbon, climate-resilient infrastructure, contributing meaningfully to the UK\u2019s net-zero goals and the broader ambition of a sustainable future.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buro Happold\u2019s approach is already being applied across public sector projects in transport, education, healthcare, and urban regeneration \u2013 helping local authorities and government agencies meet their sustainability commitments while delivering high-quality public services. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
