A prominent energy industry organisation has just issued a new guide aimed at improving private rental sector properties.
The Energy Saving Trust - which describes itself as an independent organisation ”working to address the climate emergency” - claims renters will be hit especially hard by the cost of living crisis as they are unable to carry out significant energy efficiency home improvements to reduce costs.
The Trust says: “Landlords can support their tenants by offering energy saving advice and installing energy efficiency home upgrades. Summer is the ideal time to carry out these home improvements, before colder weather hits and energy prices go up again.”

The government is letting energy prices rip, in order to hasten net zero. Britain has massive hydrocarbon reserves.
We can only hope the Russians and Chinese put an end to this nonsense by making it completely unaffordable.................... they are doing a great job so far................
It's the Russians who are supplying massive hydrocarbons and the Chinese using them,thereby generating enormous CO 2 emmissions.
I don’t believe heat pumps are considered on the current EPC assessment so why would a landlord spend the vast sum to fit them
