Assess the efficiency of non-domestic buildings
SBEM is like a health check for new and existing non-domestic buildings. It’s a way to measure how much energy a building uses.
Think of it as a report card that shows how energy-efficient a building is.
The UK government uses SBEM to make sure that new and updated buildings are energy efficient.
It helps to make sure buildings are using energy wisely and are kinder to the environment.
So, if you’re building a new office or renovating a shop, you’ll need an SBEM calculation to show how energy-efficient it is. It’s a bit like getting a building permit, but for energy efficiency.
