The BRE Innovation Park provides a ‘high-tech eco-residential backdrop’ to compliment the Bridgestone Eco-Rally theme of future sustainable living. A plethora of green transport services and vehicles of all shapes and sizes from sports cars to hybrid buses will take in a tour of the Innovation Park and get a first look at the new Natural House built by the Prince's Foundation for the Built Environment. Electric vehicles will get a quick 'top-up' charge from electricity generated by the innovative homes on site.

About the Venue

Constructed from natural materials with a low embodied energy, The Natural House is part of the latest development phase of the Park which showcases a range of sustainable homes and buildings that demonstrate innovative approaches to low impact design and construction.

Mike Whelan, Creative Director of Revolve explains:

“The BRE Innovation Park demonstrates the world’s most sustainable housing so it is the perfect backdrop for our mobile motor-show of the world’s best green transport options. Just like the vehicles on display, the park features something to suit everyone’s taste from HRH Prince of Wales' traditional ‘Natural House’ to the ultra modern, factory-manufactured Cub House.
The homes share many attributes with modern vehicle design. Some are modular and built in factories using mostly recycled or recyclable materials. They can be clad in lightweight or energy-generating materials meaning running costs will be low and they can even be used to recharge electric cars or produce hydrogen fuel on site.”

Please note that the BRE pitstop is a 'closed' event – the site will only be accessible to invited guests and the media.
