Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs)

These EPCs provide:-

• An energy efficiency rating which is a measure of the energy efficiency of a home. The higher the rating the more efficient the home is and the lower the fuel bills will be.

• An environmental impact measure is given where the higher the rating is the less the carbon dioxide emissions are and the less the impact on the environment.

• Estimated annual costs for lighting, hot water and heating.

• A summary of the performance of the home’s energy related features.

• Recommendations for ways of reducing annual fuel costs and environmental impact.
