Improving energy efficiency standards in the PRS: Understanding the proposed changes

The Government has launched its long-awaited consultation on Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES), proposing major changes that will impact landlords across England and Wales.

Under the new plans, private rented properties will need to meet higher energy efficiency standards from 2028 for new tenancies and 2030 for all tenancies – with a £15,000 cost cap on required improvements.

Join NRLA's Chief Innovation Officer, James Kent and Head of Policy, James Wood for this essential webinar where we will break down the key proposals, outline how and when the rules could come into force, and discuss what they will mean for you and your properties.

They will be joint by Retrofit expert, Anna Moore CEO, Domna.

We’ll update you on our work to ensure that the proposals are workable and explain how you can get involved in the consultation.

With the sector facing increasing regulation and financial pressures, these proposals raise concerns about affordability, feasibility and the potential impact on the rental market. Make sure you have your say and register now to stay informed and prepared for what could be ahead.

There will be an opportunity to ask questions during the webinar, but we urge you to submit your question in advance so that we can ensure all concerns are addressed. Please email your question to [email protected] by 18th February for consideration.
