| Table three: forecast carbon savings in 2065 under different definitions of a zero-carbon home | |
| Zero-carbon definition (from 2016) | Cumulative carbon savings by 2065 (millions of tonnes)* |

| 100% on site (residual emissions through allowable solutions) | 17500% |
| All carbon savings on site | 12600% |
| * Carbon savings are assessed through to 2065 to account for the longevity of carbon-saving measures. | |
