What is EcoHomes?
EcoHomes assessments were created by the BRE to determine a sustainability level for new residential developments. Councils and local planning policies across the country set a minimum standard measured in four levels for proposed developments to achieve: Fair, Good, Very Good or Excellent. Although EcoHomes is being phased out by the Code for Sustainable Homes, many local authorities continue to require EcoHomes assessments.
