From
the 1st October 2008
all commercial buildings over 50m²now require a Non-Domestic Energy Performance
Certificate (NDEPC). The purpose of the NDEPC is to
assess a buildings' CO2 emissions in line with the
requirements of Building Regulations (Part L).
Buildings account for
almost half of the energy consumption and carbon
emissions in the UK. The heating and hot water used in
your building can amount to half of all your energy
costs.
Sitemaster Building
software is now being used extensively to produce
fast and accurate floor plans to assist
Commercial Energy Assessment companies in the production
of the new certificates.
