The Code for Sustainable Homes sets the pathway for all new homes to be zero carbon by 2016. But refurbishment of existing stock has a major part to play in meeting the UK's long term carbon reduction targets.
The Energy Saving Trust Housing programme set the standards for improving energy efficiency in housing. Whether involved in designing, specifying, planning, building or installing, we give free technical advice and practical ways to incorporate energy efficiency measures into refurbishment projects and new build developments.
Our guidance will help you ensure the developments you work on - whether newbuild or refurbishment - perform to the highest energy efficiency standards.
