Companies join BRE and NABERS to improve energy efficiency of offices

Eighteen organisations have committed to being a supporter of NABERS UK, the energy-efficiency programme for office buildings, that is administered by BRE.

The supporters will work in collaboration with the NABERS UK team to contribute to helping new commercial office developments or major refurbishments in the UK to set a base building operational energy performance target, verify its achievement, and help to drive improvements to energy efficiency.

Supporters will achieve this by helping to promote NABERS UK to their clients, support the upskilling of their staff to enable delivery of NABERS UK products (Design for Performance and Energy for Offices), and provide technical input to help shape the future of the scheme.

Farah Syed, NABERS UK Product Manager at BRE, said: “We are delighted to introduce our NABERS UK Supporters to the industry, and to have their advocacy and support of NABERS UK, which will be key to helping shape the future uptake and evolution of NABERS UK products.

“We very much look forward to working together to bring about improvements to the energy performance of offices.”
