Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) will tell home buyers and sellers about a home’s energy efficiency – using A to G ratings, like those used to rate fridges and washing machines. It is expected that a home’s EPC will be attached to the particulars, which estate agents give to potential buyers. The Certificates will also make recommendations for cost-effective improvements that can be made to help cut fuel bills and carbon emissions.
Save money on fuel bills
Our homes currently account for 27% of the UK’s carbon emissions, contributing to global climate change. The EPC is prepared by Domestic Energy Assessors or Home Inspectors who are members of a Government approved Certification Scheme. It is estimated that by following the recommendations in an EPC, an average of £300 a year can be saved on fuel bills.
