The highlighted statement implies that a building designed to the highest energy saving standards but with no renewable energy source is less acceptable than a less efficient building with a higher energy demand of which 10% is renewable. This is illogical as the non-renewable energy demand of the former will be less than the 90% of the latter. Are we not in danger of encouraging the wrong approach?
