Why Do I need an EPC
Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) have been introduced to help improve the energy efficiency of buildings & are a key part of this country’s strategy to reduce the 27 per cent of carbon emissions that come from our homes..
If you are buying or selling a home you now need a certificate by law. From October 2008 EPCs will be required whenever a building is built, sold or rented out. The certificate provides 'A' to 'G' ratings for the building, with 'A' being the most energy efficient and 'G' being the least, with the average up to now being 'D'.
