PAS 2038 is the standard for the Retrofit of Non-Domestic Buildings and forms a vital role to improve the energy performance of existing commercial buildings – so a must if you operate within the built environment on retrofit design and installation projects.
The Government is working towards an objective to achieve net zero by 2050.
As part of this initiative there is a series of PAS standards to get existing building stock energy efficient. These include PAS 2030, PAS 2035 and PAS 2038.
The Government is proposing to introduce ratings schemes for buildings over 1000 square meters.
The first step will be to have mandatory disclosure of individual building ratings and if this energy performance does not improve, this may be regulated.
As a provider within the construction sector, getting ready for PAS 2038 now will ensure that you are ahead of the game. Funding schemes are likely and the Government may seek to make compliance to PAS 2038 a requirement when accessing these funds or contracts.
