    Understanding EPC Ratings

    Energy Performance Certificates rate properties from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). Each band is colour-coded for easy reference:

    A
    92+
    B
    81–91
    C
    69–80
    D
    55–68
    E
    39–54
    F
    21–38
    G
    1–20

    The average UK property is rated D, with a score around 60. Properties rated A–C are considered energy-efficient, while D–G properties may benefit from improvements.

    Did you know?

    Properties with an EPC rating of A or B sell for up to 14% more than equivalent G-rated homes, according to government research.

    Why Search for an EPC?

    There are many reasons you might want to look up an EPC by postcode:

    • Buying a property — Understand energy costs before making an offer
    • Selling a property — Check if your EPC is still valid or needs renewing
    • Renting — Verify the landlord has provided a valid certificate
    • Home improvements — See what the assessor recommended to improve efficiency
    • MEES compliance — Landlords must ensure rental properties meet minimum E rating

    EPC Statistics by Area

    Energy efficiency varies significantly across the UK. Newer-build areas like Tower Hamlets and Milton Keynes tend to have higher proportions of A–C rated homes, while rural and Victorian areas often have more D–G properties.

    No EPC Found? Here's What to Do

    If no certificate appears when you search a postcode, it typically means an EPC has never been produced for that property, or it predates the digital register (pre-2008). In either case, you can book a new EPC assessment with us for as little as £45.
