Our Energy Consultancy work is very closely related to our Carbon Analysis work however we tend to keep the Energy Consultancy section
of our web site associated with all things building stock and industrial process related. We have been engaged on many projects that
require low energy utilization and reduction in waste to promote sustainability in the completed project. Our philosophy is to reduce
the impact of building services, operations and energy procurement as a function of both design and application to reduce cost and
promote efficiency. We promote an active interest in energy conservation and low energy options.
We are experienced in the design and
application of renewable power systems such as wind turbines, biomass conversion, geothermal energy transfer and solar energy and
regularly apply these technological solutions within our detailed work for various projects.
This work extends to detailed feasibility
studies for the application of all types of renewable energy systems.
In connection with Part ‘L2’ of the Building Regulations, we
are CIBSE registered ‘Low Carbon Consultants’, (LCC). Working closely with all members of the design team, building developers, project
managers, architects, quantity surveyors and structural engineers we are able to advise and develop building/engineering design solutions;
not only demonstrating compliance with Part ‘L2’ but going beyond the regulations and providing low carbon buildings for the future.
We run Thermal Analysis Software, (TAS), a Department of Communities and Local Government, (‘DCLG’), approved computer software package.
TAS allows analysis and modelling of building and engineering design options and thus demonstrates compliance with Part ‘L2’ and also
translates projects into carbon savings. We are also approved by the BRE to undertake Part L2 assessments using ‘HEVACOMP’ software.
We are approved assessors under the NHER energy ratings scheme and registered to carry out SAP500 calculations to meet the requirements
of Part L1 of the building regulations. We carry out detailed energy audits of existing customer sites, industrial, commercial and
process and give advice on industry energy benchmarking, energy opportunity assessments, on-site and remote data collection of energy
systems, financial pay back, life cycle analysis and contract energy management. We have carried energy auditing and assessments for
health, education, commercial and industrial sectors.
The Energy Practice is able to provide you with your Energy Performance Certificates
(EPC) and Display Energy Certificates (DEC) requirements under the CIBSE Low Carbon Consultant Energy Assessor Scheme using Dynamic
Simulation Software.
