Technical energy statements to support planning applications, demonstrate compliance, and inform low-carbon design strategies.
MES Building Solutions provide clear, planning-focused energy statements to support developments across the UK. Our reports demonstrate compliance with local and national planning policy, assess energy demand, and set out practical strategies for reducing emissions.
Energy statements are a key requirement for many planning applications. They provide a structured assessment of how a development will reduce energy use, incorporate low-carbon technologies, and respond to relevant sustainability policies. Our approach ensures that energy strategies are realistic, proportionate, and aligned with project objectives.
We work closely with design teams to develop coordinated solutions that integrate building fabric, services, and renewable technologies, supporting both planning approval and long-term performance.
Fabric-First Strategy
Support for low-energy building envelopes to reduce energy demand and improve performance
Integrated Design Advice
Close coordination with architects and engineers to align energy strategy with design intent
Energy & Carbon Modelling
Assessment of energy use and emissions to inform decision-making and compliance
Planning Support
Energy strategies developed to meet planning requirements and regulatory standards
When an Energy Statement is Needed
Energy statements provide a structured approach to demonstrating how developments respond to climate and planning policy requirements.
By addressing energy strategy early, projects can avoid redesign, reduce risk, and deliver more efficient, future-ready buildings.
