C-Plan for Developers
Developers of new buildings are increasingly
being required, during the early stages of a planning
application, to provide information about energy consumption and
carbon dioxide emissions of new developments.
Where planning authorities require you to meet
specific renewable energy or carbon dioxide targets, all
planning applications must show how proposed developments will
meet these. This will often involve producing an energy
statement.
 |
Cutting CO2 emissions in new buildings helps in
obtaining planning approval and can
also lead to increased returns and reduced
project delays.

To comply with planning policy you
will need to produce an energy statement,
detailing energy consumption and CO2
emissions. This section provides
detail on the criteria a local authority will
use to judge energy statements and on the
options available to meet these criteria.

C-Plan has been designed to provide
you with the tools to identify
- The CO2
emissions (from energy use) of a proposed
development
- A reduction target to
meet planning policy requirements
- Compare a range of
options to meet the target
This section details how C-plan can
guide you through the process and introduces the
tools offered to you, such as workflow management
and energy analysis.
