EPC CERTIFICATES
Energy Performance Certificates
An **Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)** is a document that provides information about the energy efficiency of a building or property. It is commonly required in many countries when buildings are sold, rented, or constructed. The purpose of an EPC is to inform potential buyers or tenants about the energy performance of the property, helping them to make more informed decisions regarding energy costs and environmental impact.
EPCs help drive energy-efficient upgrades in buildings, reducing energy costs and environmental impact.

Energy Efficiency Rating
The property is given a rating from **A** (most efficient) to **G** (least efficient). The rating is based on factors such as insulation, heating systems, lighting, and energy consumption.
Environmental Impact Rating
The EPC includes a measure of the property’s carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions, contributing to its environmental impact score.
Recommendations
The certificate includes suggestions for improving the property’s energy efficiency, such as upgrading insulation, installing energy-efficient lighting, or using renewable energy sources like solar panels.
Validity
An EPC is typically valid for **10 years**. However, if significant improvements are made to the property, a new EPC may be issued to reflect the changes.
Legal Requirement
In many countries, having a valid EPC is a legal requirement when renting or selling a property. Not providing one can result in fines or legal action.
