What is currently energy label C in the Netherlands will soon be label E

A big change is coming when it comes to energy labels. It will have a major impact on the real estate market in the Netherlands, especially on the office market. While an energy level C label is still currently sufficient to comply with legislation, in a few years that same building would receive a much lower label. Under EU rules, energy labels are changing. 'The biggest change is that A+ to A++++ will disappear,' says ESG consultant Bart Oosterhuis of Savills in this episode of No Stone Unturned. He is joined by his colleague Iris Kampers, who warns: 'You can no longer be satisfied with label C. Look at your portfolio and filter out all the buildings with an A label. Those are safe. For everything below that, see what adjustments you will need to make.'
