EPC Register

The EPC Register is the official UK government database where all issued Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) are stored. It enables you to:

• Search by postcode or certificate reference number
• View a property’s current EPC rating
• Download the certificate as a PDF
• Check expiry dates and improvement suggestions

This free public tool is essential for property owners, landlords, estate agents, and tenants.

• Legal compliance: It proves that your property has a valid EPC before being sold or let
• Transparency: Buyers and renters can compare energy ratings and costs
• Insight: Landlords and homeowners can track changes or improvements over time

1. Visit the EPC Register website
2. Enter your postcode or 24-digit EPC reference number
3. Select your property from the list
4. View and download your Energy Performance Certificate

If your property doesn’t appear, you may need a new EPC issued.

• Energy rating from A (most efficient) to G (least)
• Estimated energy use, costs, and CO₂ emissions
• Recommended energy-saving improvements
• Details of the assessor and date of issue

• No EPC has ever been produced for your property
• The EPC has expired (valid for 10 years)
• Major renovations mean a new EPC is recommended

If any of these apply, it’s time to book an EPC assessment.

• Avoid legal issues and fines when selling or letting
• Reflect recent energy upgrades like new insulation or heating systems
• Increase buyer or tenant interest with a better rating
• Prepare for future regulations (e.g. MEES standards)

• Fast and affordable EPC assessments across the UK
• Registration and updates on the official EPC Register
• Clear guidance on how to improve your EPC rating
