An energy model (otherwise known as thermal model) is the perfect route to predicting building performance. The value of a design is entirely at risk unless key design decisions are assessed in advance. Ferguson Brown provide energy modelling across the full spectrum of building types and climate zones. We have produced thousands of dynamic simulation energy models focused on enhancing building performance through all the design stages to identify opportunities and minimise the risks.
Energy Assessment Guidance 2022 for London
The purpose of an energy assessment is to demonstrate that the proposed climate mitigation measures comply with the London Plan. It ensures that carbon reduction remains an integral part of the development’s design and evolution. The energy assessment must clearly outline the CO2 savings that will be achieved and the measures that will be put in place to reduce energy demand.
