Low-carbon buildings

Our extensive building-physics knowledge and multidisciplinary engineering background allows us to provide high-quality energy-consultancy services in the low-carbon buildings sector. 

Our services include basic feasibility and design of low-carbon solutions through to detailed energy modelling and thermo-fluid simulation.

We understand that improving a building’s efficiency is the primary method of reducing CO2 emissions.  As part of this, we offer guidance on the new CO2 based Part L building regulations, from simple advice on compliance to detailed energy modelling using accredited software.    We also offer extensive services to the building industry in the areas meeting renewable energy targets for planning and Part L compliance.
