What Is a Commercial EPC?
A Commercial Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) measures how energy-efficient a non-domestic building is. It’s required whenever a commercial property is built, sold, or rented in the UK.
Each certificate grades the building’s energy performance on a scale from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). EPCs are valid for 10 years and must be issued by a qualified, accredited energy assessor.
Our team at EPC-Hub conducts assessments across all EPC levels (3, 4, and 5), ensuring every commercial building, from simple shops to complex multi-use sites, receives the correct level of certification.
