# Energy efficient new homes offer substantial savings

 28 Aug 2024 [Anwyl Homes](https://blog.anwylhomes.co.uk/blog/author/anwyl-homes)

Household energy bills could be reduced by almost 75% by making the switch from old to new, new research released this month (August) has revealed.

The [Home Builders Federation](https://www.hbf.co.uk/policy/wattasave/) (HBF) has compared the energy performance of older properties and new build homes.

It’s found that the average new build homeowner – including those living in apartments, bungalows and houses – saves £143 a month on their energy bills. That’s more than £1,700 a year.

For those living specifically living in a house the monthly saving rises to £183 or more than £2,200 annually.

But there’s potential to save even more by moving to one of our newest houses, built to Part L Building regulations.

Based on the HBF data you could save £2,575 a year on your energy bills. That’s a saving of 74% compared to an older house.

Homes on our latest developments including [Parr Meadows](https://www.anwylhomes.co.uk/our-developments/parr-meadows/) in Eccleston, [Queen’s Meadow](https://www.anwylhomes.co.uk/our-developments/queens-meadow/) in Shavington, [Whittle Brook Park](https://www.anwylhomes.co.uk/our-developments/whittle-brook-park/) in Heywood and the latest phase of [Priory Gardens](https://www.anwylhomes.co.uk/our-developments/priory-gardens) in Burscough are being built to the Part L standard, and our future schemes will be too.

All of our homes achieve the highest levels of energy performance rating (A or B EPC) whereas less than 5% of older homes are this energy efficient.

Our homes are designed to ensure they provide efficient, comfortable living spaces with features including upgraded, wider insulation, the latest modern heating systems, PV panels and sanitary fittings that use less water. You can find out more about the energy efficient features in our homes [here](https://www.anwylhomes.co.uk/buying-with-anwyl/energy-efficiency/).
