Energy Performance Certificates
Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) present the energy efficiency of dwellings on a scale of A to G. The most efficient homes and buildings, which should have the lowest fuel bills, are in band A. The certificate also uses the same scale to show the impact a home or building has on the environment.
What is an EPC?
An Energy Performance Certificate shows the energy efficiency of a property on a scale from A to G, with band A being the most efficient. The average property in the UK is typically in band D or E for both energy efficiency and environmental impact.
When is an EPC required?
It is a legal requirement to have an Energy Performance Certificate for both domestic and non-domestic properties when they are constructed, sold, or let.
The EPC provides details on the energy performance of the property and outlines measures that may help improve it.
How does Bullock Consulting help?
In April 2012, new legislation required all Domestic Energy Assessors in England and Wales to undertake additional training in order to produce the updated EPC format. Our assessors have completed this training and can provide both domestic and commercial EPCs.
