Design for Performance Feasibility Study
24 May 2016
This is the final report of a feasibility study into the potential for UK implementation of a Design for Performance approach, similar to the NABERS Commitment Agreement used in Australia since 2002 to promise and then achieve high in-use energy efficiency levels in new prime office buildings. It sets out the justification, structure and forward actions for creating a UK Commitment Agreement whereby a developer of a new building or major refurbishment commits to achieving a specific, measured in-use energy target. Its findings result from extensive input by Australian and UK experts and widespread consultation with the many stakeholders from both property and construction industries who are involved in creating and then managing large, new office buildings.
