As the building sector is a significant contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions and energy
consumption, achieving net zero carbon buildings (NZCBs) is vital for reducing environmental
impact and meeting global climate goals. This review synthesised recent advances in minimising
embodied carbon and operational carbon, identified key research gaps, and proposed future
research for achieving NZCBs. It investigates the challenges and opportunities across legislative,
financial, cultural, tech
