By rating buildings in this manner it is hoped that building owners and landlords will strive to have better buildings as they will be more attractive to potential buyers or tenants. All buildings will be required to have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) before they can be marketed for sale or rent. This means that every property brochure must either carry all five pages of the certificate, or reproduce the colour graphs showing the energy assessment and Carbon Dioxide (Co2) impact. As qualified Energy assessors and low carbon consultants, SDS Energy are able to offer energy performance certificates. We are able to
