Energy Performance Certificates

EPCs are just the start they represent a real opportunity.

From the 1st of October 2008, all non-domestic properties over 50m2 that are constructed, for sale or rent will need a Commercial Energy Performance certificate. Energy Performance Certificates highlight the existing energy efficiency of a building and what can be done to make it more efficient. Reducing carbon omissions by making buildings more energy efficient makes business and commercial sense
Energy efficient buildings use less energy cost less to run and also demonstrate a real commitment to corporate social responsibility.

An Energy Performance Certificate is not an end in itself; it is a means to an end.

What it is doing is telling you whether or not you have got an acceptable building or whether you have actually got a gas guzzling building that you need to do something about. Because the whole point is the certificate when you get it will tell you not just what the current performance is, but also what you can do to up the rating to be a B or even an A rating building .

There are several fundamental reasons why any company would want to upgrade their building.

The first one is to do with saving on fuel bills. Fuel bills are going up we all know that, well if you can improve the energy rating of a building then the likelihood is that you are going to have much lower fuel bills, much lower outgoings.

When you come to sell, rent or lease your property its energy rating will have an impact on its value and the rental income it generates as the prospective Buyer, Tenant will be able to see how energy efficient the building is and how much it is likely to cost to provide heat, light and address any recommendations that need to be carried out in order to improve performance.

There are many factors that can affect productivity in the work place including the indoor environment, improvements in Temperature, Humidity, Ventilation and Lighting, can increase productivity due to the increased comfort of the work environment. By carrying out some or all of the recommendations could result in increased productivity.

If you are prepared to actually upgrade your building so its obvious that you are occupying a B or even an A rated building, thats saying we care, we have genuine social responsibilities, corporate social responsibilities and we want to say we are good environmental citizens.
