Why become a Non-Domestic Energy Assessor?
The role of the NDEA is predominantly site based and involves the collection of commercial property data concerning constructions, glazing, heating, ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) and lighting. They will collect and enter this data into approved SBEM software which is used to calculate the energy performance of the property and produce an EPC.
No previous experience or qualifications are required for individuals to qualify as a NDEA, which makes starting a new career in this area relatively easy. NDEAs can choose to work for an existing company or become self-employed, where they can manage their own workloads.
The role of the Energy Assessor is becoming increasingly popular as the UK government aims to improve the energy efficiency of existing homes in pursuit of its net zero carbon by 2050 target.
Regulations such as Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) in the private rental sector has also increased the demand for the services of Non-Domestic Energy Assessors in England and Wales as landlords and property agents take action to determine if their properties are up to scratch.
