As a rule of thumb, lease contracts can qualify as “green lease” contracts if they fulfill stringent and/or mandatory requirements with the aim of improving the energy efficiency of the leased premises. These green leases typically contain clauses charging operating costs based on consumption, regularly sharing data on energy and water consumption and waste generated by the occupancy of the building, or obliging both parties to commit to renewable forms of energy.

According to Luxembourg regulations, the EPC needs to be provided by the landlord to the tenant and, as a general rule, it is attached to the lease agreement.
