The changes to SAP and Part L are fast approaching. National Energy Services has already produced software to preview the changes, workshops to discuss how they will affect you, and we have also launched a package of online CPD for On Construction DEAs and any other interested parties to dig deeper into the subject.

The “Green Deal” has been making headlines for months.

High profile Conservatives, including David Cameron and Grant Shapps, have talked about homeowners being entitled to spend up to £6,500 improving the energy efficiency of their home. Repayment will be from savings in future energy bills – but with the homeowner still seeing an overall saving. Crucially, if the property is sold, the repayment will continue to be made through the energy bills by the new owner.

What I will share with you though are two observations which are energy related.
