Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) in the United Kingdom

Partner provides Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) services across the United Kingdom, supporting property owners, investors, and occupiers in meeting statutory energy efficiency requirements and improving building performance.

In the UK, a valid EPC is a legal requirement for most buildings that are sold or let. The EPC provides an assessment of a building’s energy efficiency and associated carbon emissions, assigning a rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). EPCs play a central role in demonstrating compliance with the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES), which set minimum performance thresholds for leasing and asset operation.

UK EPC Assessments Overview

Partner undertakes EPC assessments in accordance with UK legislation and government-approved methodologies, ensuring certificates are compliant, accurate, and fit for transaction, leasing, and asset management purposes.

EPC assessments typically consider:

  • Building construction and fabric performance
  • Heating, cooling, ventilation, and hot water systems
  • Lighting and energy consumption characteristics
  • Overall operational energy efficiency

The resulting certificate provides a clear summary of current performance and identifies recommended measures to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions.

EPC and ESG Alignment

EPC services form an important component of broader ESG and sustainability strategies. Partner’s EPC assessments are delivered as part of an integrated approach to energy and carbon performance, allowing energy efficiency outcomes to be considered alongside wider ESG objectives.

This approach supports clients in understanding how EPC performance may influence:

  • Leasing strategy and MEES compliance
  • Asset value and marketability
  • Carbon reduction and transition planning

What Is the EPC+ Report?

The EPC+ Report is a strategic improvement plan that complements the standard EPC. It provides tailored recommendations, indicative costings, and projected payback periods to support improvements to a building’s EPC rating and long-term compliance with MEES requirements.

The EPC+ Report moves beyond diagnosis, helping clients:

  • Improve overall energy efficiency
  • Align with current and emerging UK regulatory requirements
  • Plan upgrades to meet future performance thresholds
  • Enhance asset resilience and sustainability credentials
  • Achieve an improved EPC rating
