WHAT ARE ENERGY PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATES ?

 An Energy Performance certificate provides details of how energy efficient a property is by giving it a grading on a scale A-G, with A being the most energy efficient. As well as the Energy Efficiency grading a property is also given an Environmental Impact rating again on a scale of A-G with a property rated A having no impact on the environment. These ratings are shown in a table similar to those supplied with electrical appliances such as fridges and washing machines. An average property in the UK has a grading of D or E on both scales. The EPC also includes recommendations of the ways in which the property's energy efficiency can be improved. These recommendations are grouped into Lower Cost measures (under £500), Medium Cost measures (£500 and over) and Further measures. To aid potential buyers there is also a table that provides estimate energy usage for the property and a table that summarises the property's energy performance related featuresThe EPC does not consider any appliances e.g. fridges, TVs or any light fittings that are plugged in. It also does not consider the occupant's usage of the home. The EPCs gives its calculations based on a standard occupancy, a standard heating pattern and a generic locality. By assuming these factors it enables potential buyers to compare one property's energy efficiency to another.
