BHCC - AS - ITT - EPC Contract 2023-28 - AWARD

Description

The Council require a contractor to provide EPCs for council owned non-domestic properties over a 5 year program from 2023 to 2028. This requirement is in response to the minimum energy efficiency standard (MEES) introduced in March 2015 by the Energy Efficiency (Private Rented Property) (England and Wales) Regulations 2015. From 1st April 2025 all commercial properties (except those exempted) must have a minimum EPC rating of C before they can be leased. In addition to planned EPCs there will be unscheduled new leases and existing leases surrendered/re-let over the duration of the contract where an EPC assessment will be required. These cannot be quantified as the work will be reactive.
