Sustainable Energy Assessments
Many development proposals must include a detailed energy assessment with their Planning Application. We can demonstrate a successful track record of quickly finding an affordable solution to these challenging requirements.
The London Plan 2011 Policy 5.2 requires Development proposals to reduce CO2 emissions in accordance with the following energy hierarchy:
- Be lean: use less energy
- Be clean: supply energy efficiently
- Be green: use renewable energy
| London's CO2 Reduction Timetable | Targets for Developers: Improvement on 2010 Building Regulations |
|
|---|---|---|
| Year | Residential Buildings | Non-domestic buildings |
| 2010 - 2013 | 25% | 25% |
| 2013 - 2016 | 40% | 40% |
| 2016 - 2019 | Zero carbon | As per building regulations |
| 2019 - 2031 | Zero carbon | Zero carbon |
We have successfully helped Developers and Planners meet London’s CO2 emission reduction targets since they were first introduced in 2005.
District Heating and CHP
Energy Assessments should include district heating & cooling and combined heat and power (CHP) proposals. Our CHP Feasibility Calculator is respected throughout the industry as an invaluable tool to quickly and easily establish the optimum solution for a development.
For most Energy Assessments, we can offer:
- A competitive lump sum fee
- A proposal by return
- A fast track programme
- Immediate Free Access to the on-line Stilwell CHP Feasibility Calculator
