Climate legislation is already a very real business issue with the minimum energy efficiency standards (MEES) in England & Wales making it unlawful for landlords to grant a new tenancy of commercial property if the EPC rating is worse than E.
From 1 April 2023, this will be extended to include existing leases making it unlawful for a landlord to continue to let commercial property.
An incremental pathway has been proposed by the UK Government that ultimately will deliver rented properties with EPC ratings of B or better.
The cost and supply of energy represents a material business risk for owners and occupiers of commercial buildings.
The accessibility and versatility of OnGen’s digital tools allows all properties within a portfolio to be assessed for their energy efficiency potential, onsite renewable energy options and a green energy supply contract. The scale of the challenge makes this absolutely imperative.
With the built environment responsible for 40% of emissions and 80% of the buildings that will exist in 2050 already built, OnGen is the perfect partner to continue on the net-zero pathway.
OnGen offers a three-step process through OnGen Expert, OnEfficiency & OnSupply. Steps can be done holistically or separately.
Your organisation will be assigned a dedicated account manager, who will offer training support and guidance. Additionally, if your organisation is struggling for time, the Managed Service, where assessments are conducted by the OnGen team on your behalf, can be a great option.
