Energy Performance Certificates or EPCs

Energy Performance Certificates or EPCs are due to be part of Home Information Packs, which have been in effect since the 1st August 2007 in England and Wales for domestic properties with 4 or more bedrooms. The scheme was extended to encompass 3 bedroom homes from the 10th of September 2007

What is an Energy Performance Certificate

Energy Performance Certificates tell you how energy efficient a home is on a scale of A-G. The most efficient homes - which should have the lowest fuel bills - are in band A.
The Certificate also tells you, on a scale of A-G, about the impact the home has on the environment. Better-rated homes should have less impact through carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.

The average property in the UK is in bands D-E for both ratings. The Certificate includes recommendations on ways to improve the home’s energy efficiency to save you money and help the environment.
