The
Energy Performance Certificate is broadly similar to the certificates
found on many domestic appliances.
A Certificate
for a building gives the building an asset rating based on its energy
efficiency, but doesn't take into account how the home is used by
the occupiers.
The
Certificate will give the building a rating from A to G. An A rating
shows it's very efficient, meaning lower fuel bills, while G is
inefficient, meaning higher fuel bills. The Certificate will also
show the building's environmental impact by indicating its carbon-dioxide
emissions.
There
will also be recommendations for cost-effective actions to improve
the building's rating. The potential rating is based on all the
recommendations being implemented. |
