Energy Performance Certificate

(EPC)

Get a clear understanding of your property’s energy efficiency with our Energy Performance Certificate (EPC). Required for buying, selling, or renting properties, an EPC provides a detailed report on your building’s energy usage and environmental impact. It includes an energy efficiency rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient), alongside recommendations to improve energy performance and lower utility costs.

Why do you need one?

  • You must order an EPC before marketing your property for sale.
  • Required every 10 years by landlords.
  • An EPC must be obtained prior to advertising in Scotland and provided to tenants on move-in for the rest of the UK.
  • Since April 2018 it is illegal to rent any residential or commercial property in England or Wales with an EPC rating below E.

An EPC measures the energy efficiency of a property on a scale of A – G.

Energy Performance Certificates were introduced in 2007 and are a legal requirement for a building to be sold, let or constructed. Once obtained, an EPC is valid for 10 years.

The most efficient homes – which should have the lowest fuel bills – are in band A. The Certificate will tell you on a scale of A-G, the energy efficiency of your home along with the potential scale after improvements are made.  Better-rated homes should have less impact through Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions, the EPC will show the amount of CO2 emissions produced by that property in tonnes and will advise on the amount this could be reduced by.

What’s included?

  • Recommendations on ways to improve the home’s energy efficiency to save you money and help the environment.
  • The assessor will then use software to analyse the data and calculate the property’s energy performance rating, which is given on a scale from A to G, with A being the most efficient and G being the least.
