UK: The Hub, a building in Barnard Castle, Teesdale, County Durham, has been granted the highest environmental standards rating due to its high levels of insulation and other elements of its design. The building, built on behalf of Teesdale Community Resources was awarded an 'excellent' rating with outstanding credits by the Building Research Establishment's Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM).

As well as extensive cavity wall insulation, the Hub features a whole host of other sustainable features, including a biomass boiler and an on-site water treatment bio-digester/reed bed, which eliminates the need for external waste connections. It also has a grass roof and a curved glass section to maximise the amount of natural daylight that reaches its concourse.
