The Scottish Government is seeking public input on proposed reforms to the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) system. The EPC system is used to assess the energy efficiency of buildings and provide recommendations for improvement. The proposed reforms aim to make the system more effective and efficient, while also providing better information to consumers.
The Scottish Government is proposing a number of changes to the EPC system, including: introducing a new rating system, making the certificates easier to understand, and introducing more detailed information about energy efficiency measures. The proposed reforms also include the introduction of a new online platform for consumers to access and compare energy efficiency ratings for different buildings.
The Scottish Government is inviting feedback from the public on the proposed reforms. This includes feedback from businesses, homeowners, tenants, and other stakeholders. The consultation period will run until the end of April 2021.
The proposed reforms are part of the Scottish Government’s commitment to reduce emissions and improve energy efficiency in Scotland. The reforms are also intended to help consumers make informed decisions about their energy use and help them save money on their energy bills.
The Scottish Government is encouraging everyone to take part in the consultation and provide their views on the proposed reforms. This is an important opportunity for stakeholders to have their say on how the EPC system should be reformed.
The proposed reforms to the EPC system are an important step in helping Scotland meet its climate change targets and improve energy efficiency. It is essential that everyone takes part in the consultation and provides their views on the proposed reforms. This will help ensure that the reforms are effective and beneficial for all stakeholders.
