EDP have relocated

All new and refurbished buildings need to comply with Part L of the Building Control Regulations for England and Wales.

This applies to both homes and commercial buildings

To comply with Part L involves reducing CO2 emissions over previous build standards. This will involve using highly efficient equipment and possibly on-site renewable energy sources such as solar thermal heating, heat pumps and photovoltaics.

So, in order to hit the target, it is prudent to get a professional Building Services Design Consultancy involved with the project from inception. It is often very difficult and costly to adapt designs to meet the regulations after the initial conception stage.

EDP can fulfill this role for you.

Demonstrating compliance with Part L requires a calculation of the energy performance of the building using approved software such as SBEM and SAP. EDP is able to offer this service.

If you need any advice or assistance with Part L compliance please contact Ian or Steve at EDP by any of the means above.
