The development is located on the north of Wellington Road and West of Denmark Street. This Energy Statement reports the predicted energy performance and carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) of both the residential and non-domestic aspects of the development, using compliant design simulation software. The report outlines the design considerations that may be adopted to reduce the energy demand and CO2 emissions during the development’s operation. The proposed development is required to be compliant with Building Regulations ADL 1A for Residential units and 2A for the non-domestic units. The David Wilson residential development, adjacent to Elms Field, is not included in this assessment. Furthermore in accordance with Wokingham’s adopted managing development delivery (MDD) local plan (2014), schemes of more than 10 dwellings or 1,000 sq m in gross floor space of non- residential space, are required to achieve a minimum of 10% reduction in carbon emissions through on site renewable energy or low carbon technologies. Wokingham Borough Council’s local policies relating the sustainability are detailed in section 3.0. Elms Field Wokingham, achieves a 22.88% reduction in Carbon Dioxide emissions (CO2) beyond the baseline Part L Development. This has been achieved through implemented passive design measures for energy demand reduction, high efficiency Air-Source-Heat-Pump and implementation of photovoltaic panels. The development achieves a total saving of 108,107 Kg of CO2 per annum. Figure 1.

Figure 2: Elms Field Site Plan – CDA Architects ELMS FIELD, WOKINGHAM November 2018 ENERGY STATEMENT ___________________________________________________________ 3.0 PLANNING POLICY This Energy Statement has been carried out in line with local and national planning policy requirements relating to sustainable design and construction, encouraging that passive design, energy efficiency measures, low zero carbon and renewable technologies are incorporated into the design and construction of all new developments. 3.1 Local Policy Wokingham Borough Council’s policies relating to Sustainable Design and Construction are contained within the Adopted Core Strategy Development Plan (2010) and Adopted Managing Development Delivery (MDD) Local Plan (2014). 3.1.1 Adopted Core Strategy Development Plan Adopted Core Strategy Development Plan Document (2010) Policy CP1 12. Contribute towards the goal of reaching zero-carbon developments as soon as possible by: a) Including appropriate on-site renewable energy features; and b) Minimising energy and water consumption by measures including the use of appropriate layout and orientation, building form, design and construction, and design to take account of microclimate so as to minimise CO2 emissions through giving careful consideration to how all aspects of development form. Adopted Managing Development Delivery (MDD) Local Plan (2014) Policy CC05: Renewable energy and decentralised energy networks 1. Local opportunities to contribute towards decentralised energy supply from renewable and low-carbon technologies will be encouraged. 2. Planning permission will only be granted for proposals that deliver a minimum 10% reduction in carbon emissions through renewable energy or low carbon technology where the development is for: a. Schemes of more than 10 dwellings (gross) or b. Non-residential proposals of more than 1,000 sq m gross floorspace. 3. Proposals for renewable energy and decentralised energy works, including wind turbines, must demonstrate that: a. They are appropriate in scale, location and technology type; b. Are compatible with the surrounding area, including the impact of noise and odour; ELMS FIELD, WOKINGHAM November 2018 ENERGY STATEMENT ___________________________________________________________ c. Do not have a damaging impact on the local topography and landscape; d. There is no significant impact upon heritage assets, including views important to their setting; e. In the case of wind turbines, take account of their cumulative effect and properly reflect their increasing impact on the landscape and on local amenity. Sustainable Design and Construction Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) (2010). Sustainability Issue 1: Adhering to national codes on construction standards Residential developments will be assessed under the Code for Sustainable Homes and non-residential developments will be assessed under whichever BREEAM version is applicable. Sustainability Issue 2: Minimising Energy Consumption All developments (including new builds, extensions, conversions and change of use) should seek to achieve the highest practical standards of sustainable design and construction to reduce energy demand throughout the lifetime of the development. The Council will encourage all developments to be built to higher standards than those required at a regional or national level. The Council will encourage developers to set new standards of excellence. Sustainability Issue 3: On-site decentralised / renewable / low carbon Energy Generation. In line with the South East Plan policy NRM11, all developments involving 10 or more dwellings or 1,000m2 or more gross non-residential floorspace (major developments) will be expected to secure at least 10% of their carbon emissions from decentralised, renewable or low carbon sources.

  • Building Standards Scholarship 2015/16 Building Control Influence
    Building Standards Scholarship 2015/16 Building Control influence on the energy performance gap of buildings Bernadette Bowden Southend-on-Sea Borough Council January 2016 1 Abstract The performance gap (buildings which consume more energy in operation than was predicted in design) has been found in new buildings and across all sectors, in the UK and worldwide; studies have shown that operational energy use can be up to five times higher than estimates during design (Carbon Trust, 2011). Specific factors relating to the design and construction (including commissioning) of new buildings can be influenced by building control professionals through their involvement in plan checking and site inspections, as they carry out their function. Poor construction leading to the avoidable waste of energy was attributed by building control as predominantly a result of poor quality control on site, lack of an appropriately skilled workforce, and incorrect thermal detailing on site. Increased awareness of the performance gap, particularly for less experienced building control professionals, will assist them to address poor construction or issues surrounding late or incomplete commissioning. The risk-based approach to site inspections, building control staffing levels, and the competitive environment in which building control bodies operate, are barriers to building controls ability to carry out Part L compliance checking, and results in reduced opportunity to influence the factors identified as contributing to the performance gap. Lack of information reduces the ability of the building control body to check for Part L compliance. The Building Notice application type has been identified as 2 resulting in less information and its suitability for use with new build has been questioned.
