The UK Green Building Council has said all
non-residential buildings should have their A-G energy rating on public
buildings to encourage landlords to bring up to scratch those premises
lagging behind.
Green Building Council chief executive Paul King said the rating system should be included in the Energy Bill currently going through parliament. "A to G ratings for commercial buildings will provide a reputational driver for both landlords and tenants to take energy use more seriously," he added.
He said aswell as displaying ratings, landlords should also be required to put up certificates showing energy efficiency of the services they provide.
