Are you looking for a Energy Statement for Planning?

If you’re planning on remodelling, restructuring or redeveloping your property or constructing a new development, many local authorities will wish to see a professional Energy Statement alongside a planning application. This may also be requesting to ensure compliance with the London Plan.

At Building Compliance Testing, we know the importance of this documentation and our expert team have years of experience at providing such a statement to ensure your project runs smoothly and in accordance with the additional requirements set by Local Planning Authorities.

What is an Energy Statement?

An Energy Statement is a legal document required for a property or building project to prove that the development will not only be sustainable but will meet local energy policies. From CO2 emissions to renewable energy targets, this statement will demonstrate how specific energy-based objectives will be met in order to allow a planning application and project to move forward.

Energy statements typically detail the most cost effective solutions to reduce the carbon emissions of any dwellings and if any renewable technologies are required. To complete this we use a SAP/ HEM model.

By providing a valid Energy Statement, and proving how any objectives can be met through the likes of proper ventilation solutions and efficient heating and lighting, you’ll be able to demonstrate your commitment to your local planning authority and enhance your dedication to a more sustainable property.

London Plan Requirements

Our Energy Statements will outline standard CO2 emission and energy costs; potential fabric efficiency improvements; lighting efficiency enhancements beyond regulations; how the development will meet local energy policies and plans; and, a renewable feasibility report.

There may also be occasions where London Plan compliance may consider wider sustainability issues such as:
