Commercial property owners warned over EPCs

The introduction of new legislation has highlighted the need for commercial property landlords to have the right documentation for their interests.

Every property of this kind now needs to have an energy performance certificate, with those who fail to fill in the forms facing a maximum fine of £5,000.

According to the Sheffield Telegraph, a number of legal firms that deal with commercial property issues have seen an increase in work due to the new law.

Philip Wilbourn, chief executive officer of Wilbourn Associates, told the newspaper: "The new rules are an important part of European-wide legislation which aims to address the crucial issue of environmental impact."

Commercial property owners in London who have made efforts to make their assets more environmentally friendly were recently recognised at a major event hosted by the capital's mayor, Boris Johnson.
