GreenLord — EPC & Energy Compliance Platform for European Small Landlords
The Problem
European small landlords are facing a regulatory tsunami around building energy efficiency:
- EPBD 2024 transposition by May 2026: Member states must implement the revised Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, potentially introducing mandatory renovation obligations and stricter energy standards
- MEES tightening: UK requires EPC C for new lets from 2026, all lets by 2030 — fines up to £30,000 per property
- ETS-2 carbon pricing: From 2027, fossil fuel heating gets priced via emissions trading, making inefficient buildings more expensive to operate
- Germany's CO2 cost-sharing model: Landlords with inefficient buildings pay up to 95% of carbon costs
- Scotland's HRR system: New Heat Retention Rating rolls out autumn 2026 with compliance deadlines
Most small landlords own 1-5 properties. They don't have property management companies, energy consultants, or sustainability teams. They're drowning in confusing regulations, inaccurate EPCs, uncertain upgrade costs, and no clear path to compliance. The average upgrade cost is €6,000-€10,000 per property — a significant investment that landlords need help planning and financing.
