Energy Solutions
Dearle and Henderson have been involved in the Energy Sector for over 10 years, and have developed a full understanding and empathy of the need to conserve and preserve energy. We can assess the energy performance of buildings and have the ability to recommend measures to improve classifications thereby reducing carbon emissions. A major element of our involvement relates to the provision of Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) which forms part of the European Directive on the Energy Performance of Buildings (EPBD) which are designed to record the performance of a building in terms of energy usage and carbon dioxide emissions.
Experience
Dearle and Henderson are proud to be at the forefront of delivering Energy Solutions to a broad range of clients across Scotland, and have developed sophisticated systems and procedures to ensure wholesale compliance with current regulations. We have worked closely with the following organisations providing Energy advice and Energy Performance Certificates:
• East Dunbartonshire Council

• North Ayrshire Council
• Heriot Watt University
• Falkirk Council
• Orkney Council

Approach
• Assess all available building information; drawings, specifications, and HVAC. Teams of experienced energy surveyors will visit each site and record the required building information for software input.
• Our accredited assessors input gathered data and, utilising designbuilder software, build energy models capable of providing information on existing performance and carbon output. We can also provide bespoke recommendations for improvement, and advice on investment strategies for optimum return.
