Royal Pier Waterfront Southampton - SAP & SBEM Calculations

The £450m regeneration of Southampton Waterfront will provide 800m of waterfront with full public access providing 40-50 new premium shops, waterside restaurants, cafes and bars, 730 contemporary apartments, a 250 bed 4-5 star signature hotel and spa, a high quality park-side office development, a casino with leisure and entertainment facilities and a civic, cultural / arts and technology hub celebrating Southampton’s links with land, sea and sky.

All residential and commercial buildings need to comply with Part L of Building Regulations: Conservation of Fuel of Power, meaning that all of the new buildings designed and built as part of the regeneration will need to meet strict Target Emission Rates for CO2 generated when in use following completion. The method for ensuring targets will be met are SAP Calculations for residential buildings and SBEM Calculations for commercial buildings.

L2 Energy Consulting have significant experience in providing both SAP Calculations and SBEM Calculations on large mixed use schemes. For further information please visit our website www.L2energy.co.uk or contact Jason Cook (Partner) on Bournemouth 01202 485235
