Landlord Legislation: Complying with EPC Regulations
The UK government's commitment to achieving the target of Net Zero by 2050 is clear, as it sets up a new department for Energy Security and Net Zero. According to estimates, the housing sector, including commercial and private properties, is a significant contributor to emissions. The greater energy efficiency of the housing sector will help reduce energy bills and boost the UK's efforts to meet energy performance targets. There is a need for better clarity on how the government proposes energy efficiency improvement across the private rental sector.
