Frequently Asked Questions What is an Energy Performance Certificate? An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is required for all homes whenever built, rented or sold. The certificate records how energy efficient a property is as a building and provides A-G ratings. These are similar to the labels now provided with domestic appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines. The certificate allows prospective buyers, tenants, owners, and occupiers to see information on the energy efficiency and carbon emissions from a building so they can consider energy efficiency and fuel costs as part of their investment. An EPC is always accompanied by a recommendation report that lists cost effective and other measures (such as low and zero carbon generating systems) to improve the energy rating. Who is responsible for obtaining an EPC? It is the responsibility of the person selling or renting a building to have a valid EPC to show to prospective buyers and tenants. The EPC must be given to the eventual buyer or tenant. How long does an EPC last for? An EPC is valid for ten years, except for sales of homes which are subject to the Home Information Pack Regulations 2007, where a Home Information Pack (HIP) is required. In these cases an EPC must be no more than three years old when the property is first marketed. What does a Domestic EPC look like?
