Helpful Tools

The Energy Saving Trust has developed a number of interactive and helpful tools to help you implement sustainable energy measures:

Best practice house - see at a glance what the components of an energy efficient house look like. Whether it's a new build or refurbishment project, this tool will help you identify the measures you can implement.
Enhanced Construction Details - designed to help the construction industry achieve performance standards that exceed those set out in Part L1A of the Building Regulations, our new Enhanced Constructions Details help developers and builders to achieve the energy requirements in the Code for Sustainable Homes.
Hard to treat homes - our newly revised tool provides information so you can prioritise the range of refurbishment options available and develop an effective plan.
Whole house boiler sizing wizard - use this sizing wizard to get the replacement boiler for your house that runs most efficiently, has lower running costs and produces lower carbon emissions.
Energy calculator - we are currently revising this tool. Sign up to our e-news for updates.
