DEMO · ILLUSTRATIVE DATA

Eris managed portfolio · EPC compliance, ahead of the game

Eris holds EPCs on roughly 25 buildings and goes to market for their renewal early next year. This is what renewal looks like when the certificate is generated and registered automatically from metering data — held continuously, re-rated every month, water rated concurrently — instead of re-done as a project every five years. Shown here for the 29 buildings on Eris's published portfolio — offices, retail centres and industrial parks from Sandton to Oshakati; certificates, bands and areas are illustrative until Eris's own are connected.

Compliance EPCs for qualifying buildings (offices, places of public assembly and instruction above the size thresholds); clearly labelled voluntary EPC-principle benchmarks for the rest — one pipeline, one scale.

How the certificate is produced

No manual assessment cycle
Metering API→kWh/m² · ℓ/m²→Energy + water rating→EPC generated & registered

Floor areas and occupancy class from the existing certificate; anything that has changed is confirmed with a Scan photo walk, not a full re-assessment.

Renewal status

EPC renewals · the whole book, ahead of expiry

Every certificate across Eris's published portfolio, with its expiry and its data-rated position today. Certificates are valid for five years; the ones issued in the 2021–22 compliance push come due from early 2027. With metering connected now, each renewal is issued from data already flowing — no site campaign, no rush in the quarter they expire.

Renewal timeline

Certificates expiring per month, Oct 2026 – Sep 2027 · gold = the Q1 window

Connect metering in Q4 2026 and every Q1 renewal is issued from twelve months of real data before the old certificate lapses.

The renewal, as a service

Option A · the renewal certificate, once-off

Per building · generated from data, engineer-reviewed, registered, display copy issued
30% off the original certificate cost or R 15,000 — whichever is lower
Renewal fee
R 15,000
capped at R 15,000

Scan photo walk where a building changed since its last certificate: R 2,500. Across ±25 certificates that is at most R 375,000, and less wherever 30% off the original fee comes in under the cap.

Option B · held continuously

Per building per month · the renewal is included, and so is everything the data brings with it
R 1,000 per building per month · five metering points included
  • Renewal certificate issued ahead of expiry, registered, display copy — included
  • Live energy and water rating every month; the next renewal is automatic
  • Meter IQ cases routed to the responsible person with a rand value
  • Portfolio view for asset managers and the fund reporting line
  • Additional metering points R 50 per point per month

±25 buildings ≈ R 25,000 per month. Metering: existing meters connected read-only at R 0; where GreenX supplies a meter, R 4,000 + R 2,000 installation per point. No performance fee in either option — savings stay 100% with Eris and its clients. Indicative, excluding VAT.

All certificates

Select a row to open the building · sorted by expiry
BuildingClassGLAOn fileRated todayIssuedExpiresStatus

Buildings from erisonline.co.za; bands, dates and areas are illustrative until Eris's certificates and metering are connected. Occupancy classes per SANS 10400-A; compliance EPCs apply to qualifying buildings above the regulated size thresholds, voluntary benchmarks elsewhere.

Start with the EPCs. The rest switches on when Eris wants it.

The renewal is the entry point — and the same connected data is the first rung of a ladder Eris can climb building by building, tenant by tenant. Nothing here is required for the renewals; every rung uses the metering already connected for the certificate.

Anomalies from the same meters — after-hours HVAC, night-flow, baseload steps — routed to the responsible person with a rand value, closed with the saving quantified.

Later

What Eris gets from rung one alone

The renewal, done properly
  • Every certificate renewed ahead of expiry, registered, display copy issued
  • One live rating per building, energy and water, every month
  • A portfolio view for asset managers and the Momentum Africa Real Estate Fund reporting line
  • Tenant-facing evidence: the number on the wall is this year's, not 2021's
  • No site campaign, no report chasing, no five-year cliff

The rules we keep

Written once, so nobody has to ask
  • Existing metering connected read-only; nothing replaced
  • Compliance EPCs only for qualifying buildings; voluntary benchmarks clearly labelled elsewhere
  • All savings stay 100% with Eris and its clients — GreenX never takes a share
  • POPIA-aligned, South African hosting, Eris as data controller
  • Certificates and data remain Eris's, whatever happens later

Next step

Before the market goes out

Send the list of ±25 buildings with their current certificates, what each originally cost, and its expiry date — the 30%-off option is priced from that. We map each one to its metering, mark which renew in Q1, and come back with a per-building renewal plan and price — so the tender comparison is like for like.
