There are two ABBE Diploma courses available for Non-Domestic Energy Assessors:
Level 3 candidates will be qualified to undertake EPCs on simple existing non dwellings which can be modelled using the Simplified Building Energy Model (SBEM). They will need to demonstrate that they have conducted energy assessments of existing non-dwellings with frequently occurring characteristics for which SBEM is appropriate. Examples of frequently occurring characteristics are simple heating systems, simple natural ventilation and small comfort cooling systems. Level 3 will cover energy assessment through site visits to existing properties, but will not include assessment of new-build properties from plans.
Candidates will need to complete units 1, 2 and 5.
Level 4 candidates will be qualified to undertake energy assessments on any new or existing non dwellings which can be modelled using SBEM. Level 4 candidates will need to demonstrate that they have conducted energy assessments of new and existing non-dwellings through site visits, as well as through the examination of building plans/information. They will need to have carried out energy assessments of non-dwellings for which SBEM is appropriate. Level 4 candidates may also need to be competent to oversee a team of specialists, though they will ultimately take responsibility for the completed energy assessment.
Candidates will need to complete units 1, 2, 3 and 6.
Candidates who have completed unit 1 of this award or units 1 and 2 of the DipHI or DipDEA will be deemed to have covered unit 1 in any ABBE Level 4 Diploma in Non Domestic Energy Assessment.
