A home with energy label B is reasonably well insulated and has relatively low fossil fuel consumption. This is good for your energy costs and for the climate. The least energy-efficient label is G, while A++++ is the highest classification.
Many homes built during this period are eligible for a B label when applying for a new label thanks to basic insulation and improved installations.
The energy label is determined based on fossil energy consumption (kWh per m² per year).
For a B label, this value is between 160 and 190 kWh/m² per year.
With good insulation and a few energy-saving measures, a B label is relatively easy to achieve for most Dutch homes. Think of double glazing, wall insulation, or facade insulation.
A better energy label means a higher property value, lower energy bills, and lower CO₂ emissions. But what steps are needed to upgrade a property from label B to label A?
A certified energy consultant always starts with a complete inspection of the home (known as the baseline measurement). Improvement options are then calculated to achieve an A label at the lowest possible cost.
For homes built before 1975 with a B label, it is often sufficient to insulate certain parts, such as the roof or cavity walls. Solar panels are also a relatively simple way to improve the label.

The difference lies mainly in the degree of insulation and the proportion of sustainably generated energy. An A label can be achieved with good insulation and an efficient installation. For A+++, more is needed: a large proportion of the energy must be generated sustainably, for example with solar panels and a heat pump.
The energy label is determined based on the fossil energy consumption of the home, expressed in kWh/m² per year. For an A label, this value is between 105 and 160 kWh/m² per year. With good insulation, an A label is easily achievable. Homes built after 1991 often already have sufficient basic insulation to fall into this category. Solar panels are therefore not necessarily required to achieve an A label.

I have experienced Renewable Partners as a reliable and professional party in the field of sustainable energy. They think along well, are transparent in their communication, and deliver customized solutions that really meet the need.
Professional and readily available for questions. I am very satisfied with the service and can recommend the company. Kind regards,
While my energy label doesn't matter at all, new residents are going to renovate the entire house, Nik has still made a thorough and clear report of my old farmhouse. TOP job. Thanks
The energy label inspector is a highly skilled professional who knows his trade. We were helped well and quickly with his advice. The reactions of this company are praising the price, the lowest, and the service, downright TOP!
The recording was done carefully. All documents and construction dimensions were checked/recorded by the advisor Ronan van der Loo. And good advice was given. He finished the recording within 2 hours.
