Commercial Energy Performance Certificates

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is intended to inform potential buyers or tenants about the energy performance of a building, so they can consider energy efficiency as part of their investment or business decision to buy or occupy that building.

An EPC will provide an energy rating for a building which is based on the performance potential of the building itself (the fabric) and its services (such as heating, ventilation and lighting). The energy rating given on the certificate reflects the intrinsic energy performance standard of the building relative to a benchmark which can then be used to make comparisons with comparable properties. It is accompanied by a recommendation report, which provides recommendations on how the energy performance of the building could be enhanced, together with an indication of the payback period.

An EPC is only required for a building when constructed, sold or let. EPCs for the sale or letting of buildings other than dwellings will be valid for 10 years. Energy assessors will need to be qualified for the type of building being assessed.

For non-dwelling EPCs, the levels are :

Level 3 – simple, existing non-dwellings: small buildings such as converted houses or doctors surgeries (using SBEM)
Level 4 – new and existing non-dwellings: e.g. small purpose built office buildings (using SBEM)
Level 5 – new and existing complex non-dwellings: e.g. large office buildings or factories (using modelling tools e.g. DSM).

ECS are able to provide EPC at levels 3, 4 and 5.
