SBEM calculations are required for newly built non-domestic properties to ensure they will meet the requirements of Part L2A of the Building Regulations.
Refurbishment projects and extensions can also require SBEM calculations to satisfy Building Control requirements.
SBEM calculations assess the overall thermal efficiency of the proposed property, and also the amount of energy that will be required for internal services such as heating, lighting and cooling. The SBEM assessment process also calculates the level of carbon emissions that the building will generate once it is in operation.
The results of the SBEM calculation are compared against the corresponding requirements of Part L2A and summarised in a BRUKL report for submission to Building Control.
From the Design Stage of a project through to completion, Energy Audits will work in partnership with you, providing a thoroughly professional and fully supportive service.
Upon completion of the build, we issue an ‘As Built’ BRUKL report to confirm compliance as well as a Non Domestic Energy Performance Certificate (EPC).
