Description
Improving energy performance in buildings is becoming increasingly important as new legislation raises minimum EPC standards, pushing property owners to adopt energy-efficient upgrades that not only enhance asset value and marketability but also ensure compliance and support the UK’s net-zero carbon goals.
Key Points:

- Property Value Impact: Proactive energy improvements, like insulation, electrification, and smart systems, can significantly increase rental income and tenant appeal.
- Strategic Opportunities: Tools like draft EPCs and national EPC data help property professionals plan upgrades, particularly during refurbishments or lease renewals.
Learning Objectives:
- Learn how current and upcoming EPC legislation affects different types of properties.
- Identify energy-efficient measures that improve compliance and enhance property value.
- Understand how to leverage EPC tools and case studies to guide client decisions and increase professional opportunities.
