2033
EPC reform deadline

Forest has around 28,000 housing units, of which 49% were built before 1945. Some 63% are rated F or G, with a significant concentration in the Art Nouveau and Art Deco houses in the centre.

Forest has a rich architectural heritage which can make energy renovation complex. Replacing window frames in protected buildings must follow specific guidelines from the Royal Commission for Monuments and Sites.

🚨 2033 legal obligation: By 1 January 2033, all housing units in Forest will need to reach at least class E (≤ 275 kWh/m²/year). Homes rated F and G will need renovation works, under penalty of fines (€2.50 per kWh over the limit, minimum €125) and a significant loss of property value.

💡 Our advice for Forest:For most homes in this municipality, we primarily recommend interior wall insulation and boiler replacement. These works are eligible for Brussels Environment's Renolution grants.
