Briary Energy Consultants of Barnet, Hertfordshire are fully accredited Low carbon consultants, Sap assessors and Code for sustainable homes assessors.
Ralf Stommel, Managing Director of Stommel Haus says: "The British public are becoming more and more ecologically aware while some councils in the UK are already implementing the requirements of the government to build energy efficient and sustainable homes. Our unique wall construction of layered, natural material is free of any chemical treatment and enables us to meet these requirements and to create an exceptional indoor climate which is a trademark of a Stommel Haus. We are already in the position to provide British clients with 3 and 4 star CSH rated homes. Stommel Haus and Briary Energy are working together to provide their clients a combination of choices to achieve even more stars for their sustainable dream home.”
Gary Nicholls, Lead partner of Briary Energy Consultants says: “We at Briary Energy were very impressed with the ingenious design of the Stommel Haus walls. When assessing the homes we found that they not only achieve high ratings in the code for sustainable homes but are built with sustainable, eco friendly, and energy efficient materials. Briary Energy has the expertise, understanding and approach to help promote the requirements and benefits of sustainable development in order to support Stommel Haus’s efforts to fulfil and even outperform the current Building and planning regulation requirements.”
