EPC for Landlords

(Energy Performance Certificates)

Under Article 7 of the European Directive on the Energy Performance of Buildings, any building that is sold, rented out or constructed must have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC).

An EPC ranks the energy efficiency of a property from A (very efficient) to G (not very efficient) and is accompanied by recommendations on how to improve energy efficiency.
