Save Money and Meet Your Legal Obligations: Energy Tariffs for Student Landlords and Rental Properties

Are you a student landlord or a property manager looking to establish a stable energy supply for your rental property? Do you want to avoid legal complications while ensuring the best possible energy rates for your tenants? Then you’ve come to the right place.

This blog post will guide you through the process of managing energy for your rental property as a landlord. We will explain your legal obligations regarding energy safety and certification, provide useful tips on how to save money through switching energy suppliers, and offer practical advice on how to deal with tenants’ energy bills and switching requests.

Why You Need to Take Energy Management Seriously

First and foremost, as a landlord, you have specific legal obligations that you need to meet in terms of energy safety, installation, and certification. You are legally responsible to keep your property safe, including all electrical and gas equipment.

Failure to comply with these obligations could result in serious legal or financial penalties, as well as endangering tenants’ health and safety. By taking energy management seriously, you can protect your tenants and your property, meeting your regulatory obligations and avoiding unnecessary stress or costs.

How to Manage Energy for Your Tenants as a Landlord

When renting out a property, the tenancy agreement should specify whether you or your tenants will be responsible for paying the energy bills. You have the option of paying the bills yourself and then passing on the cost to your tenants or allowing tenants to pay the bills directly.

If you decide to take on energy management yourself, you have the flexibility to choose the best value for gas and electricity tariffs available. Switching to affordable energy tariffs can save you a lot of money in the long run. You can also compare business utilities to make sure you are not overpaying for commercial electricity, commercial gas, or business water.

Alternatively, if tenants are responsible for paying the bills, they have the right to switch to a new energy provider if they wish to do so. However, they must inform you of their intentions and work with you to ensure a smooth transition. It’s recommended that you ask your tenants to contact the energy provider for your property and have the bills put into their name, while ensuring they understand their obligations under the tenancy agreement.
