Planning & strategy

Energy Statements

Explain the energy strategy behind your planning proposal.

What this service helps you do.

An Energy Statement connects the building design, fabric specification and energy systems with the relevant planning policy requirements. Ordellis agrees the reporting scope around the site, local authority and proposed development.

What’s included.

  • Review of the relevant energy reporting requirements for the application.
  • An explanation of the proposed fabric and energy systems strategy.
  • Calculation evidence and comparisons where included in the agreed scope.
  • A coordinated Energy Statement for the planning submission.

What we need to get started.

  • Project location and planning authority.
  • Application drawings, dwelling schedule and proposed specification.
  • Relevant policy, validation requirements or planning conditions.
  • Available energy calculations and design team information.

Requirements vary between planning authorities and applications. The scope and calculation basis are agreed for the project; submission does not guarantee planning approval.

Your questions, answered.

Is this the same as a SAP report?

No. SAP calculations provide dwelling energy assessment outputs. An Energy Statement explains the wider energy strategy in the context of the relevant planning requirements.

Can you help address a planning condition?

Send the condition wording and any related correspondence. Ordellis will review the information and confirm an appropriate reporting scope.
