ASBN SustainabiliTEA #23 // Getting Ready for Whole of Home

Please join us for another ASBN SustainabiliTEA - a time to enjoy some tea (or morning beverage of your choice) whilst having a yarn about a diversity of topics around sustainable and regenerative built environments.

Are you ready for the additional energy efficiency compliance requirements coming in October 2024? Don't worry, we have got you covered.

Ben Walsham from ARKATA, a residential energy efficiency consultancy, will be presenting to all who attend at our upcoming SustainabiliTEA, about the implementation of Whole of Home within the energy efficiency requirements of NCC 2022.
 

We look forward to hearing Ben's insights, whilst sharing space with you all virtually over a soothing cuppa!
