performance certificates

A performance certificate is an official document that verifies a property’s energy efficiency and environmental performance. It provides details on how well the building conserves energy, reduces emissions, and meets specific standards. Usually issued after an assessment, it helps owners and buyers understand the building’s environmental impact and energy costs. These certificates can be required by law or encourage sustainable practices, and they often include recommendations for improvements to enhance efficiency. Essentially, it's a professional report that quantifies a building's energy use and environmental impact, promoting transparency and better decision-making.
