| Strong | Volution Group plc provides a high level of detail about its climate-policy lobbying. It names the specific rules it seeks to influence, including Part F and Part L of the UK Building Regulations and the forthcoming Future Homes Standard, and describes its work with the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero on new energy-efficiency calculation tools, demonstrating clear identification of the policies in scope. The company explains that it works through several mechanisms – membership of industry bodies such as BEAMA, direct engagement with DESNZ, written responses to government consultations, and participation in conferences and working groups – thereby revealing both indirect and direct channels and the governmental target of those efforts. It is also explicit about the outcomes it wants: supporting the Future Homes Standard so that “new homes [are] energy-efficient and ‘zero-carbon ready’,” advocating for mandatory heat-recovery ventilation and energy-efficient cooling solutions, and aligning its product portfolio with tighter standards to cut carbon emissions and improve indoor air quality. Together, these disclosures show clear transparency on what the company is lobbying for, how it does so, and the policy changes it hopes to see. | 3 |
