Episode 50: Unpacking the Government's energy efficiency plans
Friday, 28 February, 2025
Our 50th episode of NRLA podcast Listen Up Landlords sees hosts NRLA CEO Ben Beadle and presenter Richard Blanco examine the latest Government proposals around Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES). Landlords whose rental homes have an EPC rating below ‘C’ will need to spend up to £15,000 per property to reach the new minimum standard, with just five years to go until the 2030 deadline. Ben and Richard are joined by James Kent, the NRLA’s chief innovation officer; Andrew Parkin, from the Property Energy Professionals Association and Chris Rogal, a London-based portfolio landlord, to unpack the plans and what they mean for landlords. Danny McKeown-Henshall a team leader on the NRLA support team, shares some of members’ most common questions to the advice line since the proposals were published. We also run through the NRLA's calls when it comes to the plans. The association wants the Government to increase the lead-in time for change to 10 years, introduce a comprehensive funding plan to support landlords making improvements and commit to tackling the massive shortfall in qualified tradespeople.
