Abstract
The Milton Keynes Energy Cost Index is an energy performance standard used by the Development Corporation in the new town of Milton Keynes to ensure dwellings have an energy performance better than a standard which is set to be significantly better than that required by U.K. Building Regulations. Several thousand dwellings have now been processed using this standard. The standard is applied using a microcomputer program based on the Building Research Establishment's Domestic Energy Model. The technical basis of the computer program is described together with details of the energy performance standard. Feedback from developers and architects who have used the system is also presented.
