Planning Reports

SUSTAINABILITY & RENEWABLE ENERGY

With Planning Departments insisting on Sustainable and Renewable solutions and with the desire to comply with the requirements of BREEAM and Codes for Sustainable Homes, the construction industry has had to embrace new technology and improve the energy efficiency of buildings.

Planning Departments increasingly require more detailed information of the Sustainable and Renewable Energy proposals at the planning submission stage including detailed project specific energy and carbon calculations.

The Engineering Practice is able to calculate and prepare the necessary Planning Reports and assist in liaising with the Planning Departments to ultimately achieve the desired planning consent.

Our services include:

• Sustainability Reports
• Supplementary Planning Documents
• Compliance Strategy Documents
• Thermal Modelling and Energy Modelling
• SBEM calculations (including EPCs and DECs)
• Design and evidence for compliance with BREEAM and Codes for Sustainable Homes
