In this episode of the Passive House Podcast, Mary James and Ilka Cassidy speak with Joel Callow, building physicist and founding director of UK consultancy Beyond Carbon, about scaling certified Passive House delivery in London. Callow explains the firm’s focus on whole life carbon, compact building forms, overheating avoidance, and early-stage design input, and notes the team has grown to 12 people with recruitment challenges as UK training ramps up via the Passive House Trust. He describes Beyond Carbon’s role in helping major developer Barratt adopt Passive House—through lobbying, 12–18 months of R&D, and cost and constructability work—leading to thousands of units in the pipeline and an estimated 15–20,000 London dwellings in progress.
