Buildings in South Africa will need to obtain and display an Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs).
While businesses in South Africa have been given a three-year reprieve to obtain and display a new Energy Performance Certificate – time is running out to register building details, which needs to happen before the end of this year.
An EPC is aimed at helping building owners and accounting officers identify areas that need to improve energy efficiency. This is to ensure that a building remains more economically sustainable while also lowering the energy use of the building.
“But it would benefit building owners to involve an accredited inspection body. Obtaining an EPC involves an assessment of your building by the inspection body and, depending on the energy rating you receive, you might want to improve your building’s energy performance before submitting the certificate to SANEDI.”
