What is an EPC?

An Energy performance Certificate (EPC) is needed whenever a property is built, sold or rented.
You must order an EPC for potential buyers and tenants before you market your property to sell or rent.
An EPC contains information about a property’s energy use and typical energy costs and recommendations about how to reduce energy use and save money.
An EPC gives a property an energy efficiency rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient) and is valid for 10 years.
