Tenants’ Energy Efficiency Improvements
The documents in this folder are for use by residential landlords and tenants. The folder contains guidance notes and a range of letters and notices relating to the Tenants’ Energy Efficiency Improvements regime contained in Part 2 of The Energy Efficiency (Private Rented Property) (England and Wales) Regulations 2015.
Part 2 of the 2015 Regulations allows residential tenants to request their landlord’s consent to make energy efficiency improvements to the rented property. Landlords must not unreasonably refuse consent if the tenant’s request complies with the Regulations.
Tenants must demonstrate that the improvements will be made at no cost to the landlord. They may be financed by green deal funding, provided free of charge by an energy company, funded by a grant or paid for by the tenant (or a combination of the above).
The guidance notes contain detailed information about the regime and should be referred to when using the template documents.
