Energy Performance Certificate

As part of the Government’s move to meet the climate change targets under the Kyoto Protocol the introduction of EPC’s is part of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD). EPC’s are designed to increase the awareness of the energy efficiency of commercial buildings in order to create a sustainable environment for current and future generations.

With effect from October 2008 a Commercial EPC is required upon construction, sale or lease for all non-dwellings, covering everything from small retail units to offices, industrial units and large scale commercial premises such as airports and public buildings. Responsibility for enforcement in newly built properties will fall to Building Control, whilst Trading Standards departments will enforce certification of existing buildings.

At Twenty Twenty Ltd, we are able to provide affordable Commercial Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) for businesses that are being sold or leased in the United Kingdom.
