Energy label for commercial buildings

Offices, shops and commercial spaces have a utility label (EP-U) according to the NTA8800. For offices, the label C obligation has also applied since 2023: if the building does not comply, it may in principle no longer be used as an office.

We assess your building on location, arrange the label and advise you on the steps needed to meet the obligation. This way you know exactly where your building stands and you avoid enforcement.

Our advisors know the rules for utility construction and think along with you about a feasible, affordable approach with which you make the building future-proof in one go.

FAQ

Answers to the questions we hear most

It is the energy label for non-residential buildings such as offices, shops and business premises. It is determined according to the NTA8800 (EP-U) by an advisor certified for this purpose.

Since 1 January 2023 an office larger than 100 m2 must have at least energy label C. If the building does not comply, it may in principle no longer be used as an office.

Then you must make it more sustainable up to at least label C. The municipality or environmental agency supervises this and can enforce it. Our sustainability advice shows which measures are needed for this.

Yes: offices smaller than 100 m2, national and municipal monuments, buildings that will be demolished or transformed within two years, and buildings where the office function is a secondary function (less than half of the floor area).

A utility label is also valid for ten years from the registration date.

On sale, letting and completion of the property. For offices the label C requirement also applies continuously, regardless of any moment of sale or letting.

The price is on request, because it depends on the floor area and the use function of the property. You receive a fixed quotation in advance.

A certified advisor assesses the building envelope and the installations on site. For larger or more complex properties this takes longer than for a home.

With different use functions in one building, a separate energy label may be needed per function. The advisor determines during the assessment how your property is classified.

The expectation is that the requirements will be tightened further towards 2030, with the plans including a higher minimum class for offices. A current label and advice help you prepare for that.
