Passivhaus standard - determining the principles for a Scottish equivalent: SG response part 1 - regulatory changes
Proposed changes to energy and environmental standards within Scottish building regulations. Part 1 of the Scottish Government response and next steps following analysis of the responses to the proposals set out in the July 2024 consultation.
4 Next Steps
As noted in section 1.1, this document relates to the need to make regulatory changes to enable the outcome of the current review.
An additional consultation response document (part 2) will be published in early 2025 to confirm the ongoing action to take forward the review beyond the confirmed regulatory changes.
This will include commentary on topics relating to the components of the standard as it relates to building design, with particular reference to the questions which discuss the application of the metrics and components of the Passivhaus approach and its approach to calculation of building performance. It is the interrogation of these themes which will form the core of the development of amended performance targets and processes.
