Home of the landlord's energy statement and tenant's energy review

The landlord's energy statement (LES) is a tool that enables landlords and managing agents to get to grips with the energy that is used, and the carbon dioxide that is emitted, in providing communal services in their buildings.

LES has been produced by the British Property Federation (BPF) with funding from the Carbon Trust, technical development by the Usable Buildings Trust and under the guidance and supervision of a group of BPF members - some of the largest property companies in the country.

It helps landlords understand their buildings' energy efficiency, compares the performance against similar buildings with similar uses, identifies any areas for improvement and illustrates where year on year improvements have been made.

LES is intended to fit with the demands of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, while providing greater insights into buildings' energy efficiency.

Use of the LES is free; all you need to do is register your details and you will be able to download the workbook and guidance.
