NABERS UK Rating Calculators – New Assessors 

NABERS UK assessors are advised to contact CISBE Certification when they are working on their first ever Energy for Offices assessment to ensure that a supervision is promptly arranged, in line with the requirements set by the NABERS UK scheme. 

In addition, all NABERS UK assessors should ensure that they are using the latest version of the Rating Calculators when preparing any NABERS UK assessment.  

Please feel free to contact us if you need access to the latest calculators or if you have any questions. 

 

Extension to discounted methodology NABERS UK MAC Rules 

We would like to inform NABERS UK Assessors that an agreement has been made regarding the discounted methodology of section 7.4.4.1 of NABERS UK Metering and Consumption Rules-V 2.1. It was agreed that the approach has been extended until 31 Dec 2026; within this period, discounted methodology could only be used for the first assessment on any existing buildings.  

 

Regardless of this extension, we would like to highlight that it is best practice to carry on meter validation where possible, as this would help to identify any metering errors and prepare building and systems for future assessments.
