EPCs - Domestic and Commercial Energy Performance Certificates

 

Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) are needed whenever a property is:

  • Built
  • Sold
  • Rented

You must order an EPC for potential buyers and tenants before you market your property to sell or rent.

In Scotland, you must display the EPC somewhere in the property, e.g. in the meter cupboard or next to the boiler.

An EPC contains:

information about a property’s energy use and typical energy costs

recommendations about how to reduce energy use and save money

An EPC gives a property an energy efficiency rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient) and is valid for 10 years.

    You can be fined if you don’t get an EPC when you need one.

    The person selling the house, the landlord or the letting agent must show you the EPC if you’re buying or renting.

    Buildings that don’t need an EPC

    These include:

    • places of worship
    • temporary buildings that will be used for less than 2 years
    • stand-alone buildings with total useful floor space of less than 50 square metres
    • industrial sites, workshops and non-residential agricultural buildings that don’t use a lot of energy
    • some buildings that are due to be demolished
    • holiday accommodation that’s rented out for less than 4 months a year or is let under a licence to occupy
    • listed buildings – you should get advice from your local authority conservation officer if the work would alter the building’s character
    • residential buildings intended to be used less than 4 months a year

     

    See other properties’ EPCs

    You can look at the EPCs of other properties free of charge.

    This lets you compare your home’s energy performance with that of similar homes.

    You can search by the property’s address or by the EPCs report reference number.

    You can opt out of the EPC register if you don’t want other people to be able to see your EPC.
