 - Used for non-domestic buildings
- Used to determine CO2 emission rates and generate energy performance certificates
- Developed for the department for communities and local government
- Energy performance certificates ]]> 2017-05-25 09:45:41 UTC https://padlet.com/neha_patel2/cn1k2q6wcxz/wish/173788011 Planning policy statement 'Merton rule' 22 https://padlet.com/neha_patel2/cn1k2q6wcxz/wish/173788422 This was developed by Merton council. 

It requires all new developments to generate at least 10% of their energy needs on site using renewable energy equipment. 

This applies to all buildings not just residential. 

It was adopted by Merton council in 2003 and has subsequently been adopted by the Mayor of London & now the national planning guidance. ]]> 2017-05-25 09:49:59 UTC https://padlet.com/neha_patel2/cn1k2q6wcxz/wish/173788422 Sustainability of construction works https://padlet.com/neha_patel2/cn1k2q6wcxz/wish/173788636 CEN/TC350 is responsible for the development of horizontal standardized methods for the assessment of the sustainability aspects of new and existing construction works (buildings and civil engineering works), including horizontal core rules for the development of environmental product declaration of construction products (EPD).
