SBEM
The Simplified Building Energy Model (SBEM) is the default method for assessing both target and proposed levels of CO2 emissions for non-residential buildings.
There are two stages to the assessment process:
At the ‘design’ stage – an assessment needs to be completed and submitted to the Building Control Body or Approved Inspector at the same time as the Building Control Application.
At the ‘as-built’ stage - when the build is completed, a pass certificate will need to be produced and presented to the Building Control Body and approved by the Inspector.
