What is a Commercial EPC Certificate?
A Commercial Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a document that shows the energy efficiency of a building. It is similar to the labels you see on appliances, but for buildings. It is rated from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient), with A-rated buildings being the most energy efficient and therefore the cheapest to run.
This will allow consumers to get grants to make improvements recommended in the EPC certificate.
This helps improve the energy efficiency of your property, along with giving home-buyers a home energy rating.
Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) were introduced in England and Wales on 1 August 2007 to cut carbon emissions and tackle climate change and are being introduced all across Europe.
