I’m very pleased to see that this policy is going beyond the minimum current requirements. The energy usage requirements are low and will be a challenge to developers, but are necessary. Well done.
I note that reference is made to “methodology proven to accurately predict a building’s actual energy performance” and “a nationally recognised Whole Life Carbon Assessment”. I hope that these will be sufficiently developed by the initiation of this Plan. Will there be defined ways of ensuring that developers comply with these requirements?
