In the UK, landlords are required to provide an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) to tenants when renting out a property. The EPC provides information on the energy efficiency of the property.
An EPC is a report that assesses the energy efficiency of a property, giving it a rating from A to G. As of 2025, all rental properties in the UK must have a minimum EPC rating of C.
The National Residential Landlords Association provides guidance on EPC regulations for landlords, including the requirement for an EPC and the minimum energy efficiency standards.
This research study examines the impact of EPCs on the energy efficiency of rental properties in the UK, highlighting the benefits of improved energy efficiency for both landlords and tenants.
This tool allows landlords and tenants to check the EPC rating of a rental property, providing information on the property's energy efficiency and potential improvements.
The UK government has announced new regulations requiring all rental properties to have a minimum EPC rating of C by 2028, in an effort to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions.
