What is an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)?
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a document that displays the energy efficiency of a building. It assigns a rating from A to G, where A signifies very energy efficient (leading to lower energy bills and reduced emissions) and G indicates very inefficient (resulting in higher bills and increased energy waste). The certificate also provides recommendations on how to enhance the building's energy efficiency, such as adding insulation, installing better windows, or implementing renewable energy systems.
Legal Requirement
In the UK, an EPC is legally required when a property is built, sold, or rented. Prospective buyers or tenants must be able to review the EPC before making a decision.
Shows energy costs
An EPC helps potential buyers or occupants estimate their heating and electricity costs. Generally, a higher rating correlates with lower energy bills.
Environmental impact
EPCs highlight a building's carbon emissions, encouraging the development of more energy-efficient and low-carbon homes in support of climate goals.
Improves property value
Homes with better EPC ratings are often more attractive to buyers and renters, because they cost less to run.
Who Needs an EPC?
Build Net Zero Ltd assists a variety of clients in obtaining their Energy Performance Certificates.
