Energy Audits
We’ll accurately measure your building’s environmental performance and set you on the road to Net Zero.
Energy assessment and audits
The first step on the journey to Net Zero involves finding out exactly where you’re starting from, so that you can plan an accurate course.
A deep and thorough look at your project’s energy efficiency will help us identify where improvements can be made. So we’ll measure your building’s performance and ensure that it’s working at optimal levels. If it’s not, we’ll help you put that right in a way that works for you.
Energy Audits are a principal method of measuring and assessing the environmental performance of buildings. We undertake these audits for you to ensure that energy consumption is cost optimal.
SAP
To get to where you want to be, you need to understand where you are now. We use SAP modelling to give you an understanding of your home’s efficiency as it is and what it could achieve. Energy Audits help us to create a plan to reach and exceed your goals with small adjustments. We’ll provide an EPC rating for your home, along with our recommendations for cost-effective improvements.
SBEM
We're here to provide you with the knowledge you need to get the best from your building. We use SBEM software to understand and enhance non-residential buildings, always looking for ways to improve and give you the most efficient design. This modelling software helps us to produce an EPC rating for your building, along with our recommendations for cost-effective improvements.
Early engagement makes the difference
The sooner you engage us to assess and audit your project, the better. We’ll look at every detail of your building and listen closely to what you want to achieve. We’ll help to transition your building to a point where it’s low energy and ready for renewables. As registered energy assessors, renewables specialists and advisors, we’ll spot areas where efficiencies can be gained before you commit to any renewables. We’ll develop an overall energy-reduction methodology for you and explain it in a straightforward, no-jargon way. At Viridis we use our creative energy and knowledge to help you achieve your goal EPC rating.
Re-zoning is often the answer
You may be able to transform the energy efficiency of your project without having to make any physical building alterations. Relocating or re-assigning spaces can make a huge difference. How people live, breathe and move around in your building determines your energy flows – and adjusting this is often the low-hanging fruit that makes a build both energy and cost effective. We’ll help you fully understand how your building currently functions, as this is one of the most important starting points of a journey to Net Zero.
