PMI UK Cambridgeshire Branch Event: Passivhaus “Second Generation” Buildings and the lessons learnt along the way. 3rd June 2026

This event is taking place at the Glasshouse, Botanic House 100 Hills Road, CB2 1PH

The presentation looks to review a pair of recent Passivhaus accommodation schemes; Hinsley Lane (the largest Passivhaus scheme in Cambridge) and Mount Pleasant (which when completed, will be the second largest Passivhaus scheme in Cambridge). Both undertaken for St John’s College.

The focus of the presentation will be in reviewing the lessons learnt in the first scheme and how via appropriate management, these have been incorporated into the latter scheme to reduce risk and improve programme.
