What we do
Our consultancy service can support your building or refurbishment project to ensure
energy and carbon savings are maximised, and help the project team meet or exceed
energy consumption targets. We will cover all aspects of energy use and conservation,
including:
- Designing to maximise heat retention through insulation and airtightness
- Strategies for minimising problems with unwanted solar gain/overheating
- Renewable energy generation
- Lighting efficiency, illumination levels and control
- Heating and hot water generation, distribution and control
- Natural and mechanical ventilation strategies
- Specifying efficient appliances, IT and electrical equipment
- Guidance on planning and regulatory requirements
Our support can extend beyond the planning stage through to post-occupancy, overseeing
system commissioning and ensuring the theoretical energy savings are achieved in
practice.
The benefits to you
- A low-energy building which exceeds building regulation standards for energy efficiency
- A reduction in energy bills and carbon footprint
- Moderation of temperature extremes in winter and summer
- Increased occupant comfort, productivity and satisfaction

An energy-efficient building is a prerequisite for any organisation which aspires to minimize its energy consumption. With careful design, new-builds have the potential to reduce energy use by up to 90% compared to a typical office building, however similar energy savings can also be achieved through refurbishing existing properties. All of this can be achieved for little or no cost premium over a standard build designed to meet current building regulations.
