Don't Risk Penalties. Choose ARMEEC to Ensure Compliance and Drive Efficiency

Renovating in Birmingham, planning an extension in London, or redeveloping property in Manchester or Liverpool? Your local council may ask for an Energy Statement with your planning application. At Armeec, we understand how important it is to get this right. Our experienced team creates accurate, compliant Energy Statements, making the process smooth and straightforward. We’ll deal with the regulations so you can focus on building your perfect space.

What is an Energy Statement?

An Energy Statement is a key requirement for many new builds and conversions, especially in places like Birmingham or London, where local councils set specific carbon reduction goals. It’s a detailed report that shows how your project will meet energy and sustainability targets, typically by cutting CO2 emissions beyond the standard building regulations (Approved Document L). Depending on your development’s location, you might need to show a reduction of 5% to 100%. This document proves your project is not just about construction, but also about supporting a greener, more sustainable future.

In cities like Manchester or Liverpool, the Energy Statement will outline how your building performs in terms of energy use and carbon output. It covers what materials and insulation you’ll use, and details your approach to heating, cooling, and ventilation. Renewable technologies and low-carbon systems are usually part of the solution. The statement includes calculations and evidence that your design is eco-conscious and compliant with planning policy. Ultimately, it helps you get planning permission while showing that your project is smart, future-ready, and environmentally responsible from the start.

Why Energy statements are so important?

In Manchester, Energy Statements aren’t just a box to tick, they help make your project greener, more efficient, and fully compliant from the very beginning.

What You Need to Provide for an Energy Statement?

To produce a comprehensive Energy Statement for your project, we’ll need the following key information:

Architect plans showing the building layout and design: We’ll need drawings from your architect that clearly show how the property is set out, this helps us assess its energy potential from the start.
Planning conditions from your local council: Whether you're in Manchester or elsewhere, your planning approval may include rules about energy use. We’ll review these carefully to make sure your project meets them.
Your proposed choices for materials and systems: Tell us what building materials, heating, cooling, or renewable options you’re considering. This helps shape the Energy Statement around your preferred design.
Advice from an energy expert: Working with an energy consultant, whether in Birmingham or Liverpool, lets us explore different systems and pick the ones that offer the best results.
Early plans for renewables or energy-saving features: If you plan to use solar panels, heat pumps, or high-performance insulation, let us know early. We’ll factor these into your energy calculations.

With the right info, we can carry out all the calculations and checks needed to show your project will meet the energy rules in your area.

What’s Included in an Energy Assessment?

We start by calculating the building’s expected energy use and compare it to the maximum CO₂ emissions allowed by the latest regulations to see if it passes.
We suggest ways to improve how well the building keeps in heat, such as using better insulation or more energy-efficient materials to lower running costs.
We also recommend ways to make your heating, hot water, ventilation, and lighting systems work more efficiently, helping to cut energy waste and save money.
If your project is in a city like London or Birmingham, we’ll also check whether connecting to a local heat network is a practical and greener option.
We look at whether renewable options like heat pumps or solar panels will work for your site. This helps create a cleaner and more future-ready building.
We include energy performance predictions to show the council your project meets local planning rules and energy efficiency targets, avoiding hold-ups in places like Liverpool or Manchester.
