Stockholm city’s requirements

The Environmental Administration of the City of Stockholm has for some time been issuing injunctions to housing cooperatives (bostadsrättsföreningar) to reduce their energy consumption. If the injunction is not followed, the cooperative risks being fined. As a basis for its injunctions, the Environmental Administration refers to both the Planning and Building Act and a precedent from the Land and Environment Court of Appeal. Before an injunction is issued, the Environmental Administration conducts an inspection visit to the property owner to assess the potential for reducing energy consumption.Fastighetsägare som ligger i energiklass sämre än E föreläggs anlita energikonsult som ska göra en professionell utredning, presentera ett åtgärdspaket med ekonomisk plan och tidsplan för när föreslagna åtgärder åtgärder.

Property owners with an energy rating lower than class E are required to hire an energy consultant to conduct a professional assessment, and to present a package of measures along with a financial plan and a timeline for implementing the proposed actions.
