A Circular Cities Approach to Regeneration in London? Study of King’s Cross Central
Shared with the World by Elangkathir Duhindan
This dissertation examines the Kings Cross regeneration scheme from a circular cities perspective, addressing the three circular capacities of looping, adapting and regenerating. It also draws on the research on heritage-led regeneration to study the role of the site's rich heritage that has been preserved development. The research is based on a qualitative content analysis of planning documents and interviews with professionals involved in the project. The analysis concludes that the scheme exhibits looping, adapting and regenerating capacities to some extent and demonstrates the multidimensional benefits that emerge from a circular approach to urban regeneration.

Building a Green Learning Organisation: How organisations can harness employee-driven innovation to prompt sustainability transitions
Shared with the World by Elangkathir Duhindan

Has the Green Premium increased in recent
years? An investigation using pricing
evidence from the Central London Office
Market
Shared with the World by Elangkathir Duhindan
Increasing evidence of climate change is
leading to legislation and market pressure
around the carbon emissions of buildings,
particularly in the UK. There have been
several studies examining whether
environmental certifications such as EPCs
and BREEAM result in higher prices being
paid for buildings. However, the data used
in these studies is now quite old, predating
recent developments in the field, including
higher numbers of certified buildings and
greater attention being paid to ESG issues.
This study examines data on 592
investment transactions in the Central
London Office market between 2017 and
2021. Using a hedonic regression method,
statistically significant price premia of
20.6% were found for BREEAM certification
and 3.9% for a single-step increase in EPC
rating. However, only BREEAM produced a
statistically significant yield premium, of -
0.24 percentage points. The relevance of
these results, and the implications for the
market, are discussed alongside other
recent research in the area.

The Sustainable Last Mile: Understanding Travel Behaviours to Suburban Rail Stations
Shared with the World by Elangkathir Duhindan
The ‘last mile’ trip, from transit hub to home, is a growing phenomenon in transport research and investment. Yet it has received minimal attention in the suburbs, where most last mile trips are done by car. This dissertation explores key factors affecting travel behaviour for the last mile — the built environment; trip satisfaction; and attitudes — using UK case studies of the Oxford and Oxford Parkway railway stations. Quantitative and qualitative analyses reveal lessons for policy and governance, adding to a renewed emphasis on active travel during the Covid-19 pandemic.
