Be clean<\/h5>\n<p>The \u201cbe clean\u201d step sought to address this area of supplying energy more efficiently, specifically focusing on the potential to connect to or create a district or local heating network. With no district heating networks in close proximity, there was no opportunity to generate savings.<\/p>\n<h5>3. Be green<\/h5>\n<p>An evaluation of the use of different LZCTs was carried out and it was concluded that an energy strategy comprising air source heat pumps (ASHP) and photovoltaic panels (PV panels) was the most appropriate solution.<\/p>\n<p>This strategy also achieved the energy\/carbon emission requirements of both the Building Regulations and planning. However, the targets set out as part of the Low Carbon Pathfinder initiative go significantly above and beyond <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/digital-construction\/construction-software\/understand-part-l-compliance-with-field-views-step-by-step-guide\/126996\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Building Regulations Part L<\/a>. To achieve those targets, a PV area of 650m2 was required (equating to an annual yield of 92.7MWh). The use of these PVs provides up to 44% of peak energy usage for the school.<\/p>\n<h3>Reducing future carbon emissions<\/h3>\n<p>An all-electric energy strategy is not only more efficient in the short term but will provide significant benefits over the lifetime of the building.
