The figures exclude Northern Ireland.<\/p>\n<h3>Fabric first principles will be key to efficient building technology solutions<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cThis is obviously to be welcomed,\u201c said Harsha. \u201cBut energy efficiency standards should always be based on reducing the need for energy first and in particular limiting the heat loss through thermal elements \u2013 that is through achieving excellent U-values, reducing thermal bridging and improving air tightness \u2013 the fabric first principle. This will need to be combined with more use of efficient building technologies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEnsuring insulation is continuous, with no gaps, plays a vital role in reducing thermal bridging \u2013
