EPC London - Energy efficiency in London
As the UK's economic powerhouse, London there is a huge demand for commercial EPC ratings. Since a change in the law on October 1 2009, commercial property owners in throughout London and the Home Counties are required to present the Energy Performance Certificate documents to all prospective buyers. Landlords across London are also legally obliged to undergo a commercial EPC assessment on each of their properties in London before renting to tenants.
Vendors who are offering homes for sale have to provide an energy performance certificate that is no more than three years old, and those offering dwellings to let must be able to provide an energy performance certificate that is less than ten years old.
Arranging a commercial EPC assessment is a very simple process. Enlighten Enviro are commercial EPC specialists and can readily provide a quote. Once the price has been agreed a trained energy assessor visits the commercial property in London puts together the commercial EPC document.
EPC London – How much could you save?
Enlighten Enviro ensures that only a fully qualified and accredited Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA) can provide EPCs.
At Enlighten Enviro, our accredited DEA will conduct a survey of the commissioned London property. During this survey our assessor will collect data about the property's age, construction type and relevant energy usage, including the efficiency of heating systems and insulation.
The government introduced commercial EPCs as part of efforts to improve the UK's environmental record - it is estimated that half of all domestic carbon emissions can be attributed to buildings. A commercial EPC document will also contain a recommendations report that suggests inexpensive ways of combating climate change and slashing fuel bills in London. For example, it may suggest simple measures such as insulating walls, introducing energy-efficient light bulbs and upgrading the ventilation system. An additional grade will be included in the recommendations report, indicating what rating could be achieved if all proposed changes are carried out around London.

It can also provide sizeable discounts to applicants looking to obtain reports for multiple properties at the same time, while rapid turnaround times of between 24 and 48 hours are vital when you need energy certification in a hurry.
