Don't kid yourself - 2008 - Building 273(8527) 2 May 2008, 59-60(2) .
Examines how building owners and occupiers feel about Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) and the energy performance of their stock. A "Building" survey aimed to discover if British Council for Offices (BCO) members planned to get their buildings certificated, how their buildings would perform, whether members thought there would be enough assessors, and the effect of energy certification on property values. Generally it appears that EPCs are working, with BCO members seeing certification as a key issue. However, the survey also showed that respondents were overly confident about the energy performance of their buildings, with 67% expecting to get a C or D rating, and only 27% expecting an E, F or G.
