• Understand the main legislation dealing with energy efficiency

From April 2018 the granting of a new tenancy for a property with an energy efficiency rating of less than Band E was banned; this was then extended to existing tenancies from April 2020. The Government recently launched a consultation outlining proposals to raise the minimum standard for new tenancies from 2028 and existing tenancies from 2030 for all private rented properties in England and Wales. The course will look in detail at the impact of the current Minimum Energy Efficiency regulations, the exemptions and how any necessary improvement could be funded at no expense to the landlord, ECO and the possible impact of Government intended direction of travel on energy efficiency.
