<p>The Building Regulations energy performance standards are deliberately couched
in performance terms and do not prescribe the technologies, materials or fuels to
be used, allowing builders the flexibility to innovate and select the most appropriate
solutions for the circumstances. For example, many roofs are not suitable for solar
photovoltaic (PV) panels because of building orientation, roof design, or over shading.
We do, however, plan to consult on uplifting the energy efficiency standards of the
building regulations in the coming months, including those for new non-domestic buildings.</p>
