What is an EPC Rating? (Energy Performance Certificate)

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating is a government-standard measure of your home's energy efficiency, ranging from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). Improving your EPC rating can lower your energy bills, increase property value, and is often required for accessing free boiler grants and other energy-saving schemes like ECO4. Most UK homes qualify for a free or subsidized boiler upgrade if their EPC rating is D or lower. Check the chart below to see how your home compares and learn why energy efficiency matters for every UK homeowner.
