What is the validity period of the energy performance certificate?

What is the validity period of the energy performance certificate?

As it is known, according to the norms of the current legislation, the energy performance certificate should be issued for a residential apartment building. This is an official document that has requirements for its content. It also defines the validity period of the energy performance certificate.

The issuance shall be a responsibility of the management organization. Another option of the responsible person is the partnership of homeowners. Individual residents are not allowed to make this document, as only a legal entity can order its issuance.

However, everyone is interested in the question: what is the validity period of the energy performance certificate? How often should the energy audit be re-conducted and what procedures are required?

The legislation of the Russian Federation requires that the energy performance certificate is updated once every five years. Therefore, the validity period of the energy performance certificate is 5 years. It makes no sense to update it every year.

What do I need to do to prolong an existing document? To do this, you need to do a few steps.

  • Contact "Regional Energy Efficiency Office", which provides services related to energy efficiency, and order the audit of a building, premises or a house.
  • The employees of the company carry out all necessary measurements and data processing and then form the final document.
  • The results of the survey are communicated to the representatives of the Ministry of Energy, who give their report within 10 days.

As you can see, the procedure is quite simple, but opens to the organization of owners of the multi-apartment buildings wide prospects, up to the receipt of loans to carry out works that increase energy efficiency, resulting in lower heating costs.
