- A Building Energy Rating (B.E.R.) is an indication of the energy performance of a home.
- It covers energy use for space heating, water heating, ventilation and lighting calculated on the basis of standard occupancy.
- A BER is similar to the energy label for a household electrical appliance like your fridge. The label has a scale of A-G. A-rated homes are the most energy efficient and will tend to have the lowest energy bills.
