❓ Problem space
Why are we doing this?
It is assumed relevant to have the unit energy label added in the system, so it can be displayed and/or used during the booking process.
How do we judge success?
It is possible to configure and change an unit energy label at unit level and via bulk update
It is possible to store a PDF at unit level
It is possible to fetch unit energy label onto templates
It is possible to expose unit energy label at Maxxton Websolutions (Webmanager, MyEnvironment, Owner Portal)
It is possible to easy import unit energy labels in bulk for a first time setup
It is possible to easily have an overview for which units the energy label is missing
Clients are able to populate the system from 1-OCT-23 onwards.
What are possible solutions?
Most feasible directions to implement the requirement are to:
Develop a new field at unit level
Develop a new field at accommodationtype level with inheritance to unit level
Use amenity at unit level
✅ Validation
What do we already know?
If someone sells or rents out a recreational accommodation, it is mandatory to propose an energy label to the buyer / renter and mention this in any advertisements.
From 1-1-2024 onwards the Dutch organ ILT will inspect if legislation is complied with.
Exceptions are possible, no energylabel is required for i) monuments, ii) detached units with <50m2 usable area, iii) >2 years not in use, iv) units without energy installations and v) units with <4 months usage per year and <25% energy usage compared to a full-year usage scenario.
Energylabels must be registered at the online government portal EP-online.
Energylabel is at unit level
Legislation allows holiday resorts to efficiently label comparable units with same characteristics (based on maps). In other words, units belonging to the same accommdationtype are most likely evaluated and processed in bulk.
It refers to Dutch legislation, so this does not apply to units in countries other than NL.
What do we need to answer?
How does the evaluation process and its output look in practice? In other words, what does our client receive from evaluators and in which format?
Should the obligation to mention energylabels in advertisements be interpreted as mandatory to display on client websites?
Can it be expected the energylabel is used for reports / batch update processes etcetera? (Manage prices for units with Energylabel X for instance, or as search criteria on a website)
Is there a due date for energylabels?
Is it relevant to keep track of energylabel changes other than via the unit_history_log?
Is it correct understood (based on Infographic) only label A-G are valid for recreational units? (And A+/A+++++ are only for residential/utility)
