Sustainability has been at the core of operations at Varming for decades.

CEO James Kavanagh is a huge believer in engineers’ capability to change the world. He says “Engineers are natural ambassadors for change, especially in terms of design. The engineering community, coming together with all sorts of politicians and goodwill, make real transformation happen.”

During our podcast, we hear about their design ethos and how they make the most of nature to create efficient buildings. We also discover the most important yet invisible resource at medical and data facilities, how they made a century-old building carbon neutral and how to keep your engineering creativity strong.

TOPICS WE DISCUSSED INCLUDE

  • The importance of the skin of a building
  • When MEP is not MEP
  • The smartest elements of design today
  • Net Zero solution at Donegal Garda Station
  • Challenges unique to medical facilities
  • Building design in 2035
  • Attracting new talent into Engineering
