Mainstream climate thinking that assumes countries will shut down their coal plants is not realistic.
a scenario where the revenue value of the new products was very high.you can see that scale has little relative influence over the NPV at different scales.
There is a difference, smaller scale has a lower return and somewhere the scale can be optimised, but changes are relatively small and would suggest that sticking with an installed or familiar scale may make sense, if you are confident that most of your products will be blockbusters..There is a natural upper limit to the.and this maybe should be understood to prevent “traffic-jam” consequences..
at low value products, scale appears to be.potentially critical.

over the longer term.Automation in construction.
In terms of maximising value, we must also address the reality that at present, the majority of an architect or designer’s time is spent documenting ideas, whereas in actuality, it is the creation of the idea in the first place which is the most value-adding element.One benefit of standardising components and adopting a P-DfMA approach is that we can document the rules around those components.
This in turn means we’re able to automate the design process (to a certain level), or certainly automate the production of the BIM model.. Standardising components and digitising workflows enables architects and designers to spend more time generating ideas and better designs, more time performing simulation and testing.Once the optimal design for a site is decided upon, the digital model, already aware of the required mechanical electrical components, wall types, doors, structural components and so on, is able to generate a LOD 400 bill of materials quality BIM model very quickly.. It’s worth stressing that using modern methods of construction in this way doesn’t mean taking jobs away from people.
