Energy Label Utility
An energy label shows how energy efficient your premises are, this is meant to encourage energy-saving measures. Starting in 2023, all office buildings must have at least a label C. To establish an energy label for commercial properties, you need an EPA-U consultant. All Homekeur consultants are personally certified and are therefore allowed to prepare the energy label for you. We also work according to certain guidelines, the certification of which can be found in the BRL9500 certificate.
Nationwide network!
With a nationwide network of consultants, we perform energy label inspections throughout the Netherlands on a daily basis. Our consultants are all qualified and under constant quality control.

The preparation of an energy label requires an on-site inspector to visit. An appointment will be made with you for this by our planning department. An average of 1.5 hours is scheduled for the inspection and recording of all data, depending on the size of the premises, sometimes a little more or less time is needed. No settlement follows for more or less time spent.

Recognized expert energy label
To determine the energy label of a commercial property, you are required to hire a qualified and licensed consultant. This consultant will visit the site and carefully walk through it using a comprehensive checklist. Considerations include the insulation, lighting, heating and ventilation present. After the commercial property has been inspected, all findings are processed and calculated into the software and you, as the owner of the commercial property, receive an energy performance certificate.
NTA 8800 and BRL 9500
As of Jan. 1, 2021, companies performing energy labeling must be certified according to the new BRL 9500. This BRL follows from the NTA 8800, this NTA 8800 is the calculation method and methodology to determine the energy performance of a building. As of Jan. 1, 2021, therefore, only energy labels can be requested and prepared based on NTA 8800. This is done by an Energy Performance Advisor (EP Advisor), who is qualified to do so and works for a certified company/organization (in accordance with BRL 9500). The EP consultant prepares the energy label based on an on-site building survey and registers the label in the national registration database EP-online.
