Energy Audit EPC in Brussels — €50 VAT incl.

Add a personalised energy audit (PDF) to your EPC Certificate for €50 VAT incl.: priority works, price ranges, 2025-2040 calendar and legal deadlines 2033/2045.

From F to C — it's possible, and we'll show you how

An EPC Certificate (also called PEB in French or EPB in Dutch in Brussels) in class E, F or G costs you dearly: declining sale value, rental price cap, fines from 2033. But improving your score is not a matter of luck — it's a matter of planning. Our certified assessors can deliver a personalised energy audit (PDF) for €50 VAT incl. as a supplement to your EPC Certificate.

What's included in your EPC energy audit (PDF)?

A complete report prepared by your certified assessor, based on the technical data collected during the EPC visit. A separate deliverable from the official certificate, charged €50 VAT incl. as a supplement.

1

Current diagnosis

Your starting EPC class, consumption in kWh/m²/year, CO₂ emissions and identified technical weak points (insulation, heating, windows, ventilation).

Priority works

The works to carry out in the right order to maximise impact: roof insulation, facade, basement, heating system, solar panels, ventilation.

3

Price ranges

Realistic estimates based on Belgian market rates at the time of the audit, for each work item. No quotes needed to get an idea.

4

Quantified energy gains

The EPC class you will achieve after the works, annual savings in kWh, reduction in CO₂ emissions in kg, and estimated financial gains.

5

Calendar 2025–2040

A multi-year plan respecting the Brussels legal deadlines: 275 kWh/m²/year by 2033, 150 kWh/m²/year by 2045.

6

Avoided fines

Estimate of the CoBrACE penalties your property would avoid by carrying out the works within the legal deadlines (2033 and 2045).

Frequently asked questions — EPC energy audit

How much does the EPC energy audit cost?

€50 VAT incl. as a supplement to your EPC Certificate. The energy audit is a separate deliverable from the official certificate. Simply tick "Energy audit (+ €50)" in the contact form. The PDF is delivered with your certificate.

What does the EPC energy audit (PDF) contain?

Your current and simulated class after works, the priority works in order of impact (insulation, heating, windows, solar panels), estimated price ranges, gains in CO₂ and kWh, annual financial savings, potentially avoided CoBrACE fines, and a calendar to 2040 respecting Brussels legal deadlines.

Does AL Energy recommend contractors?

No. In accordance with the Order of 17 February 2011 on the EPC Certificate (art. 6 — independence of the assessor), our report contains no commercial proposal and does not refer you to specific contractors. You freely choose your service provider; you can consult the official Renolution directory.

Why is the audit charged at €50?

The energy audit is a separate deliverable from the official EPC Certificate: it requires additional analytical work, up-to-date price estimates, a 15-year renovation trajectory and compliance with legal deadlines. Charging this service €50 guarantees our complete independence from contractors and the quality of the output.

What does a full energy renovation cost in Brussels?

It depends on your situation. The most impactful items are insulation (roof € 15-25/m², facade € 40-80/m², basement € 20-40/m²) and heating (condensing boiler € 4,000-7,000, heat pump € 10,000-18,000). Typically, moving from F to C requires a total budget of € 20,000 to € 50,000 spread over several years.

Which works are a priority to improve an EPC in Brussels?

Generally: 1) Roof insulation (best cost/performance ratio, gain of 1 to 2 classes), 2) Wall insulation (rear facade first), 3) Efficient heating (condensing or heat pump), 4) Windows and glazing if needed, 5) Ventilation, 6) Photovoltaic solar panels. The exact order depends on your property — that's what the audit determines.

What happens in 2033 and 2045 for poorly rated properties?

In Brussels, the Region imposes binding targets: in 2033, properties with an EPC above 275 kWh/m²/year will be sanctioned. In 2045, the limit drops to 150 kWh/m²/year. By 2050, the goal is carbon neutrality. See details of the sanctions →

Can I request this audit if my EPC was issued elsewhere?

No. The energy audit is prepared based on data collected during the certification visit by our own certified assessors. It is added (+ €50) to an EPC Certificate order from AL Energy.
