Energy Statements for Planning Applications

When planning a building project, your local authorities will require an energy statement to ensure the building development will reduce carbon emissions and stay compliant with sustainability standards. By submitting a well-outlined, compliant energy statement document, you can increase the chances of your building application being approved.

An Energy Statement supports Part L compliance by detailing energy-saving design measures, heating systems, and any renewable energy use. The document showcases the development’s sustainable approach in the planning phase.

An energy statement for residential planning should include baseline emissions, thermal performance, proposed energy-saving methods, and renewable technology integration (such as solar PV or heat pumps).

Most Energy Statements cost between £400 and £900, depending on your project’s requirements. Focus 360 Energy provides competitive, fixed-rate packages for both homeowners and developers.
