What is an Energy Performance Certificate?
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a legally valid document which provides an energy efficiency rating (displayed on an A-G scale) in relation to a property’s running costs. An EPC is a legal requirement if you are selling or letting a property.
The rating will take into account the potential energy performance of the property itself (the fabric) and its services (heating, lighting, hot water etc).
In addition to this, the EPC document will also show:
✅ A breakdown of a property’s energy performance.
✅ Its environmental impact.
✅ Recommendations for improvements.
✅ Estimated energy use alongside potential savings.
Not all properties are used in the same way. The energy efficiency rating uses ‘standard occupancy’ assumptions (typically 2 adults and 2 children) which may be very different from the way in which occupiers actually use things like heating and lighting within their property.
When do I need an EPC?
An EPC is required in the UK whenever a property is marketed for sale or rent or is newly built. The EPC is valid for 10 years or until a newer EPC is produced for the same property. It is recommended that a property’s EPC should be made available to potential buyers as soon as it is marketed for sale or rent.
Lettings and Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES)
All privately-rented properties are under these Regulations, and these must reach a minimum EPC Rating of Band E (39 SAP points).
From 1st April 2018, Landlords will be unable to grant a new tenancy on a property which does not meet the minimum E standard. From 1st April 2020, this will extend to all tenancies. A valid Energy Performance Certificate would need to be provided to prove that the property meets the MEES minimum rating
Exemptions to the MEES Regulations
There are several exemptions to the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards required of let properties. If a landlord thinks one of the exemptions applies to their property, it must be registered with the relevant evidence on the government register (PRS).
