Energy Rating Detailed

Your new Lovell home has been designed with energy efficiency in mind, helping to reduce your bills and carbon footprint.

Here's how our energy-efficient homes work...


While energy prices have begun to come down from the peak last winter, new build homes are still saving homeowners thousands of pounds each year. As the industry progresses towards the Future Homes Standard, these savings will become greater still, with new homes being started today being built to even higher energy efficiency standards following a change to regulations that took effect from last summer. For homes built after 2025, when the Future Homes Standard is expected to come into effect, energy bills for the average new build property are expected to be cut by 70% as compared to the average older property. 

On top of these financial savings, new build properties are significantly more environmentally friendly than older properties. The average new house emits just one-third of the carbon of typical older houses, with each house saving 2.8 tonnes of carbon per year. 

As builders prepare for the Future Homes Standard, which is expected to come into force in 2025, the country’s new build housing stock will deliver even greater carbon savings. Under the new regulations, new homes will emit just 0.36 tonnes of carbon a year, a tenth of the amount of the average existing property.
