The EPC Register - The Energy Performance Certificate Search Engine.
Use this epc register search facility to find energy performance certificates and recommendation reports for domestic properties in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
To find an EPC for a property in Scotland please click here to search the Scottish EPC Register.
To check if your property has a valid epc enter the property postcode in the search box below. A full list of both valid and expired Energy Performance Certificates on the register will be shown for the postcode entered.
You can view the EPCs of other properties free of charge. This lets you compare your home’s energy performance with that of similar properties.

Rules on letting this property
Properties can be rented if they have an energy rating from A to E.
The graph shows this property’s current and potential energy efficiency.
Properties are given a rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient).
Properties are also given a score. The higher the number the lower your fuel bills are likely to be.
For properties in England and Wales:
the average energy rating is D
the average energy score is 60
Breakdown of property’s energy performance
This section shows the energy performance for features of this property. The assessment does not consider the condition of a feature and how well it is working.
Each feature is assessed as one of the following:
very good (most efficient)
good
average
poor
very poor (least efficient)
When the description says “assumed”, it means that the feature could not be inspected and an assumption has been made based on the property’s age and type.

Primary energy use
The primary energy use for this property per year is 88 kilowatt hours per square metre (kWh/m2).
What is primary energy use?
Primary energy use is a measure of the energy required for lighting, heating and hot water in a property. The calculation includes:
the efficiency of the property’s heating system
power station efficiency for electricity
the energy used to produce the fuel and deliver it to the property
Environmental impact of this property
One of the biggest contributors to climate change is carbon dioxide (CO2). The energy used for heating, lighting and power in our homes produces over a quarter of the UK’s CO2 emissions.
An average household produces
6 tonnes of CO2
This property produces
0.8 tonnes of CO2
This property’s potential production
-0.2 tonnes of CO2
By making the recommended changes, you could reduce this property’s CO2 emissions by 1.0 tonnes per year. This will help to protect the environment.
Environmental impact ratings are based on assumptions about average occupancy and energy use. They may not reflect how energy is consumed by the people living at the property.
How to improve this property’s energy performance
Potential energy rating
A
Making any of the recommended changes will improve this property’s energy efficiency.
If you make all of the recommended changes, this will improve the property’s energy rating and score from B (83) to A (98).
What is an energy rating?
An energy rating shows a property’s energy efficiency.
Properties are given a rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient).
Properties are also given a score. The higher this number, the lower your CO2 emissions are likely to be.
Recommendation 1: Solar water heating
Solar water heating
Typical installation cost
£4,000 - £6,000
Typical yearly saving
£24
Potential rating after carrying out recommendation 1

85 | B
Recommendation 2: Solar photovoltaic panels, 2.5 kWp
Solar photovoltaic panels
Typical installation cost
£3,500 - £5,500
Typical yearly saving
£340
Potential rating after carrying out recommendations 1 and 2
The estimated cost shows how much the average household would spend in this property for heating, lighting and hot water. It is not based on how energy is used by the people living at the property.
Heating a property usually makes up the majority of energy costs.
Estimated energy used to heat this property
Space heating
1336 kWh per year
Water heating
1385 kWh per year
Potential energy savings by installing insulation
The assessor did not find any opportunities to save energy by installing insulation in this property.
You might be able to receive Renewable Heat Incentive payments. This will help to reduce carbon emissions by replacing your existing heating system with one that generates renewable heat. The estimated energy required for space and water heating will form the basis of the payments.
