Commercial Energy Certificates

If you are thinking of selling or leasing your commercial property, the seller or landlord is responsible for ensuring a valid Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is available to all prospective tenants or buyers.

The government has implemented new legislation for all commercial properties which requires you to obtain an EPC or Display Energy Certificate (DEC).

Anyone wishing to sell their commercial property now requires an EPC before their property can be disposed.

If you are letting property you will not need a HIP, however you still legally require an EPC to renew tenancy agreements or lease any property to new tenants.

Any property owner found not to provide an EPC where one is required will face fines of up to £5,000.
