Performance: Optimising thermal efficiency 

Building performance is now an integral part of modern sustainable design. NuPlanet help deliver energy, carbon and cost savings for our clients, as well as enhancing thermal comfort for the building occupant.  

We recognise the complex challenges facing our clients, from evolving legislation to the growing demand for efficient and comfortable buildings. Our team understands the pressing need to design, construct, and refurbish structures that not only meet today's standards but are equipped to endure tomorrow's uncertainties. 

We collaborate with the design team to cut through complex regulations and planning policies by using a range of building performance & dynamic modelling software.  

 

Expertise You Can Trust 

With decades of technical and operational experience, our expertise includes SAP, SBEM, thermal bridge analysis, PHPP and Dynamic Simulation Modelling for overheating to support projects of any scale, budget or ambition. 

Our collective goal is to ensure that the Performance Gap is as small as possible with the building performing as intended.

How we can help

Drawing on our deep understanding of building performance and expertise in building regulations and planning policies, our consultants guide design teams to ensure compliance from project inception through to completion. 

By employing dynamic and static modelling techniques, we assess a building’s potential performance at every stage through a series of practical improvement options.  This enables detailed cost analysis from the outset and maintaining strict budget control while meeting or exceeding all relevant legislation and planning requirements. 

Our extensive experience has shown that the most successful outcomes occur when we are engaged early in the design and development process. We find that this consistently leads to less abortive works resulting in fewer changes and unexpected costs through the detailed design and construction phases.

We have worked with NuPlanet on several schemes now and have always appreciated their collaborative and informed approach. Their areas of expertise are complicated ones and getting them designed and integrated into the overall build is critical to the successful delivery of our projects and on each occasion, Charlie and his team are able to communicate well with other design stakeholders and maintain a holistic and detailed understanding of how buildings work allowing their areas of design to be woven into the fabric of the building, mindful of both form and function. I would heartily recommend NuPlanet to anyone looking for such service.
