Step 1 Allow us to do the following
Review your portfolio of buildings to determine which are at MEES risk. There are a number of initial step 1 considerations including: reviewing expiry dates of passing leases and EPCs, accessibility of EPC data files, lease terms, exemptions and point of contact.
Step 2 We then do the following:
If EPCs are in place and up-to-date we can attempt to source the original data files. By accessing the original INP/XML files we show you the most cost-effective and beneficial ways to improve your EPC rating through different retrofit measures which will be detailed in a comprehensive report.
Step 3 We then do the following:
If your clients are looking to transact on a building for either acquisition or disposal, Energy Report can help. This software report solution identifies retrofit measures and costs for repositioning a building’s EPC rating out of MEES risk – helping you to help your clients identify and mitigate MEES risk and negotiate on asking price. ALSO, the report can be used as supporting evidence to apply for an exemption to the MEES
