The energy performance and carbon emissions of commercial buildings is assessed using the Simplified Building Energy Model (SBEM). This is a tool for demonstrating compliance with Part L2 of the Approved Documents both before works commence on site and once the project has been completed. An EPC can then be created and lodged using the as-built model.

Using SBEM modelling to inform the design from concept stage can help minimise changes later in the project programme. We aim to provide practical solutions that can work within your budget and within a timeframe that suits. We also offer related services such as thermal bridging and TM52 overheating risk assessments that can benefit your project.
