Energy Performance Certificate (EPCs).
Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) give information on how to make your home more energy efficient and reduce your energy costs. All homes bought, sold or rented require an EPC. EPCs carry ratings that compare the current energy efficiency and estimated costs of energy use with potential figures that your home could achieve. Potential figures are calculated by estimating what the energy efficiency and energy costs could be if energy saving measures were put in place. The rating measures the energy efficiency of your home using a grade from ‘A' to ‘G'. An ‘A' rating is the most efficient, while ‘G' is the least efficient. The average efficiency grade to date is ‘D'. All homes are measured using the same calculations, so you can compare the energy efficiency of different properties.
