OWNERS of commercial properties in Thurrock need to obtain a Commercial Energy Performance Certificate (CEPC) by January.
Research undertaken by Countrywide Energy Assessors indicates that many owners of commercial properties are not aware that they will soon need to obtain the certificate for any property that they intend to offer for sale or to let.
CEPC’s have been required on actual sales or lettings of commercial properties since April for some larger properties, but from the beginning of January 2009 a certificate will be needed at the point any property is placed on the market.
The requirement is part of the government’s policy to reduce energy consumption and help the battle against climate change.
