Non Domestic / Commercial EPC+ Plus Energy Performance Survey
Did you know:
From April 2018, the proposed legislative changes make it unlawful to let residential or commercial properties with an EPC Rating of F or G (i.e. the lowest two
tiers/grades of energy performance efficiency).
Given this risk to property owners and occupiers it is clear that a full understanding of the energy efficiency of your Non Domestic property assets should be attained. Owners will need to
assess the costs and viability of undertaking retrofits or refurbishments. This will have a serious impact on value and make finding a cost effective solution imperative.
The Government believes that the “Green Deal” may provide a financial solution to support energy efficiency refurbishment and retro-fit projects. Jtec believe a cost effective and more
practical approach is to analyse your Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) in detail to reduce any costly Green Deal Energy Performance surveys (although the Green Deal does allow for the improvement
measures to be carried out without full payment in advance) or refurbishments in order to bring the property in-line at a minimum cost.
Energy Performance Certificates and our EPC Plus Survey
The energy efficiency / performance of your non-domestic property or Asset Rating is derived by comparing your building to a similar notional building
with an added improvement factor based on current Building Regulations.
As Building Regulations become more demanding (including software changes) so too will your Asset Rating become lower (i.e. worse) however this is not the only reason. Under the approaching 2018
Energy Act it will make properties illegal for non domestic rentals if they do not achieve the minimum rating (Minimum Energy Performance Standards). Now is the time to start improving your Asset
Rating and in turn save money.
This is where we come in……
We provide ‘what if’ scenarios (our EPC Plus Energy Survey) and remodel the properties using simulations enabling us to identify the most cost effective
solution to improve the energy efficiency / performance (hence EPC rating) of our clients’ non domestic buildings/portfolios. It will show exactly what is required to achieve the best rating for your
building before any fabric, heating, cooling, lighting etc. changes are physically undertaken.
This will be based on information gathered from the EPC survey (ranging from building fabric, HVAC, lighting, controls etc). We can then perform a multitude of energy performance simulations (the ‘what if’ scenarios) of the property which will give a real sense of how big the opportunities for improvement might be, while at the same time enabling you to clearly focus on the energy performance inefficiencies.
