EPCs for homeowners
Don’t you have an energy performance certificate yet for your home? In that case you will receive a provisional EPC in January or February 2015. You will have to go online yourself to convert this provisional EPC into a mandatory, definitive EPC.
EPCs for buyers and tenants
When you buy a new home, the previous owner must give you a definitive energy performance certificate. If you are a new tenant, the landlord must give you a copy of the EPC. Sitting tenants also have a right to a copy of the EPC.
Mandatory EPCs for buildings
An energy performance certificate is usually required when homes, commercial and public buildings (such as schools or hospitals) are put up for sale or rent.
EPCs for commercial and public buildings
Energy performance certificates are mandatory for the owners of commercial and public buildings when the buildings are put up for sale or rent or when construction is completed. This category of buildings includes schools and hospitals.
