SAP Calculations for new build dwellings in England

All new buildings in England and Wales are required to have a Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) calculation, which quantifies energy performance in terms of heating, lighting, and ventilation. The calculation also considers the fabric and structure of the building, the type and efficiency of insulation, and any renewable technologies installed.
