Energy budget
[edit] It would be good to define the scope of EUI and whether renewables are or are not included. LETI's definition within the Climate Emergency Design Guide excludes energy consumption from on-site renewable energy generation which differs from RIBA's Operational Energy targets which include energy consumption from renewable energy generation and LETI's subsequent FAQs on Net Zero. There is risk of relying solely on metrics which exclude on-site renewable generation as it can mask the poor performance of building fabric and operation.
