The new headquarters, designed by BDP and to be built by Mace, would create the largest cluster of climate research and operational forecasting facilities in the world on the University of Reading鈥檚 Shinfield Road campus.
The university鈥檚 department of meteorology has a longstanding relationship with ECMWF, worked together on weather and climate simulations, and training programmes for early career researchers.
The new headquarters project is funded by the UK government through the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology.
GPA director of capital projects Clive Anderson said: 鈥� The GPA team has been working closely with the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology and Mace Construction to develop the submission and deliver a modern, accessible, and highly sustainable building.鈥�
