RdSAP serves as the primary methodology for assessing the energy efficiency of dwellings across England and Wales. The forthcoming RdSAP 10 introduces several key improvements:

• Enhanced Heating System Assessment: Refined categories and efficiency metrics for various heating systems, including detailed evaluations for heat pumps and boilers.
• Improved Insulation Data Collection: More precise data capture for wall, roof, and floor insulation, facilitating better evaluation of a property's thermal performance.
• Comprehensive Windows and Glazing Evaluation: Detailed assessment of window types, glazing, and frame materials to accurately determine their impact on energy consumption.
• Advanced Ventilation and Air Tightness Analysis: Incorporation of airtightness test results and a thorough examination of mechanical ventilation systems with heat recovery (MVHR).
• Lighting Efficiency Updates: Inclusion of data on energy-efficient lighting solutions, emphasizing the role of LEDs in reducing energy usage.
• Integration of Renewable Technologies: Enhanced assessment methods for properties utilising renewable energy sources like solar photovoltaics, solar thermal systems, and battery storage.
• Updated Calculation Methodologies: Alignment with the latest standards, including adjustments to carbon emission factors to reflect the evolving energy grid.
• Refined Data Collection Techniques: Introduction of more rigorous data collection protocols, ensuring greater accuracy in energy assessments.

These updates are designed to provide more accurate representations of a property's energy performance, supporting the UK's commitment to reducing carbon emissions and promoting energy efficiency.
