Energy Performance Certificates The clock is ticking

From December 14th 2007, UK Government decreed that all residential homes marketed for sale in England and Wales, must have - as part of the Home Information Pack (HIP) - an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) which rates both the energy efficiency and environmental impact (C02 emissions) of your home to home buyers.

For Northern Ireland, an Energy Performance Certificate is required from 30th June 2008, but only as a standalone document - a Home Information Pack is not a requirement.

Energy-Performance-Certificates.org (this site) aims to guide and inform, as well as to hopefully offer some self-help tips you can utilise to maximise the energy rating of your home and, well, save you money!
