… reduce space heat 90 80 demand even further, by around half when compared to to Part L 2013 & 2021 with a very similar fabric. 70 By 2025, the low form factor and compliance with Part L fabric can lead a high- rise building to perform almost two times better than the current Climate Change Committee, LETI and RIBA recommendations just by introducing an 60 MVHR unit and a better air…
… Background | Recent guidance on new buildings Important research and guidance on new buildings has been published in the last 18 months. The Committee on Climate Change report ‘UK housing – fit for the future?’ highlights that we need to build new buildings with ‘ultra-low’ levels of energy use. It also makes a specific reference to space heating demand and recommends a maximum of 15-20 kWh/m2/yr…
… a heating demand ranging between 60-100 kWh/m2/yr is typical. 15-20 kWh/m2/yr The UK housing: Fit for the future? report published by the Committee on Climate Change in February 2019 recommends ultra-low levels of energy use and a space heating demand of less than 15-20 kWh/m2/yr The costs and benefits of tighter standards for new buildings report, produced by Currie & Brown and AECOM…
… for the Committee on Climate Change’s UK housing: Fit for the future? report Guidance on the need for net zero carbon buildings and total energy use targets has been published by the UKGBC, the RIBA and LETI 2021440| Bristol High rise energy modelling | Jan 23 | Rev D 4 5 2021440| Bristol High rise energy modelling | Jan 23 | Rev D 1.0 Approach…
… This scenario is based on the UKGBC’s 2025 stretch target, including a fabric efficiency of 15-20kWh/m2/yr, in line with the Climate Change Committee’s recommendations. This requires a similar level of fabric performance to Part L 2013, with the majority of gains delivered by improving the airtightness to 3m3/m2hr and use of heat recovery ventilation. The EUI target for this scenario is set at 70kWh/m2…
