Your collaborative project partner
Architects don’t need another supplier—they need a team-mate who speaks the language of RIBA stages, BIM models and Part L compliance. That’s how we operate.
- We can embed at the earliest feasibility meetings so passive-design opportunities aren’t missed.
- Our building service engineers supply you with modelling and designs that slot into your package
- You keep full design authorship; we provide the renewable energy expertise that de risks planning and building control approval.
One point of contact – Integrated design, flawless installation, holistic management
Better Planet can own every technology stream—heat pumps, solar PV, battery storage, MVHR and underfloor heating—so they work together as one high-performing system.
| Designed together | Installed right | Holistically managed |
|---|---|---|
| • Whole-building heat loss optimises sizing across all plant. • Coordinated REVIT/BIM families prevent clashes and ensure spatial fit. • Control strategies written early, so pumps, inverters and sensors speak the same language from day one. | • In-house commissioning script balances flow rates, inverter curves and ventilation rates for peak COP and occupant comfort. • All equipment registered under a single handover pack – no finger-pointing between vendors. | • Predictive maintenance alerts schedule proactive servicing before efficiency drifts. • Comprehensive service contracts offer ongoing peace of mind to ensure equipment continues to deliver high performance. |
Result: You get one phone number, one email thread and one accountable specialist shepherding every renewable technology from concept through decades of smooth operation—eliminating gaps, delays and scope creep.

Technologies at a glance
Ground source heat pumps
What it is: A system that uses heat from the ground in a refrigeration process to heat your building and provide hot water.
The benefits: Highly efficient system with reduced carbon footprint and energy bills.
Air source heat pumps
What it is: A versatile, low-carbon heating and cooling system that transfers heat between indoor and outdoor air.
The benefits: Provides a scalable solution for buildings of various sizes, reducing both carbon footprint and energy bills.
Water source heat pumps
What is it: Take energy from nearby water bodies and turn it into eco-friendly heating or cooling for your property.
The benefits: Brilliant consistent temperature control and improved efficiency.
Solar PV
What is it: Photovoltaic panels capture the sun’s energy and convert it into electricity.
The benefits: Generating your own electricity lowers grid reliance, and reduces ongoing runnign costs.
Mechanical Ventilation Heat Recovery (MVHR)
What is it: A system that recovers heat from air leaving a building, reusing it to heat a building.
The benefits: Improves air quality and recovers up to 90% of outgoing heat.
Battery storage
What is it: Stores of electricity which can be charged and discharged in your building.
The benefits: Make the most of cheap electricity tariffs, and ensure the electricity you produce through Solar PV can be made the most of.
- How early should we involve Better Planet?

-
Yes. We can act as principal designer, specialist subcontractor or client adviser depending on your procurement route.
- Do you offer CPD sessions?
-
Yes! We have several CPD sessions availble:
- Heat pumps for blocks of flats
- Creating a renewable home
- Solar PV for commercial premises
Contact the team to organise a lunch and learn, or webinar, session.
