The Future Buildings Standard

The Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government have started their second stage of the 2-part consultation on proposed changes to Part L (Conservation of fuel and power) and Part F (ventilation) of the Building Regulations. It builds on the Future Homes Standard consultation by setting out energy and ventilation standards for non-domestic buildings, existing homes and includes proposals to mitigate against overheating in residential buildings.

The proposals set out a Future Buildings Standard which provides a pathway to highly efficient non-domestic buildings which are zero carbon ready.

The CIOB would welcome input from members to help formulate a response to this consultation. To have your say, please email the policy team: [email protected]

Consultation closes: 13 April 2021
