Housing Minister Matthew Pennycook has refrained from clarifying whether landlords can recoup costs associated with Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) upgrades, raising concerns among landlords about rent increases under the Renters' Rights Act.

The Welsh government claims that recent regulatory changes have improved renting conditions for tenants, but concerns arise about potential impacts on landlords and property investments.

The introduction of the Renters' Rights Act raises significant concerns regarding its impact on landlords' ability to implement green upgrades in their rental properties. Understanding these implications is crucial for landlords aiming to comply with new regulations while improving energy efficiency.
