Improving Energy Performance of Private Rented Homes

The UK government is implementing minimum energy performance standards for privately rented homes to reduce carbon emissions and improve tenant living conditions. Led by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (formerly BEIS), the policy establishes binding energy efficiency requirements (measured by EPC ratings) that landlords must meet by specified deadlines. Multiple iterations of the Minimum Energy Performance of Buildings Bill have been tabled, with a 2025 update confirming the government's commitment to phased implementation across the rental sector.
