Energy Performance Certificate
Energy Performance Certificate (EPC):
An EPC is an energy efficiency assessment of your home or
business dwelling; all properties require one when they are built, sold or
rented. Like appliances, they are rated from A to G with 'A' being the highest
level of efficiency. They contain information about the current performance of
your property and give you a rank based on this. They also make recommendations
about measures you could introduce to make your home more efficient, reduce
your carbon emissions and boost your rating. D is the average rating for houses
in the UK; it is estimated that around 50% of houses are below this level.
In the main, your EPC rating will be based on a few key
factors:
• When
your property was built.
• Whether
the property is insulated and to what degree.
• How
modern the heating system is and what fuel is used.
• The
property's ventilation characteristics.
Why you need one:
From 20 March 2012, the Feed-in Tariff rules require level
'D' Energy Performance Certificates.
From April, customers installing solar PV will be required
to produce an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) of a minimum of level D in
order to claim the full feed-in tariff rate of 21p/kWh. Those who do not supply
this as part of their FIT application will receive a lower tariff (9p/kWh) for
the full duration of the tariff lifetime.
How to get one:
Urban Energy have fully trained EPC assessors. We offer an
EPC survey as part of our installation package, however should you require just
the EPC assessment; we are able to provide you with this service for a fee of
£65.00.
How is the assessment carried out:
During the assessment you can make it easier for your
assessor by telling him about any energy saving measures you have installed. If
you have had cavity insulation it's not always easy to see without knowing it's
there and it could mean you get a lower rating than you deserve.
It is also worth noting that, in some cases, installing a
solar PV or solar thermal system will boost your rate enough to raise your EPC
level to a D. We will let you know if this is the case for your property. It
should be noted that a property must already have an EPC rating of D or above
to achieve the higher tariff for PV installations.

UK government loses Supreme Court case against solar feed-in tariffs
The UK government’s doomed case against the challenge to its
planned cuts of solar feed-in tariffs has been rejected by the Supreme Court.
The last ditch attempt by the government to overthrow
previous decisions by the High Court and the Court of Appeal that its action to
cut solar feed-in tariffs during the consultation period as “legally flawed”
failed on Friday 23 March 2012.
The Supreme Court’s rejection of the government’s appeal
marks the end of the legal wrangle and leaves the thousands of homeowners and
businesses who installed solar panels after the 12 December cut-off date and
before 3 March better off.
The lucky ones will now receive the higher FIT rate of 43.3p
per kWh, instead of the lower rate of 21p.
Energy and Climate Change Secretary Ed Davey said he was
“disappointed” that the Supreme Court did not to grant permission to hear the
case, but said that the ruling “draws a line under the case”, which was
instigated by his predecessor Chris Huhne.
“We will now focus all our efforts on ensuring the future
stability and cost effectiveness of solar and other microgeneration
technologies for the many, not the few,” he said.
Andy Atkins, the executive director of Friends of the Earth, which
brought the challenge along with other solar installers, welcomed the ruling
that the government’s “botched… solar plans are illegal”.
“[The] landmark decision which will prevent ministers
causing industry chaos with similar subsidy cuts in future,” he added. “The
Coalition must now get on with the urgent task of restoring confidence in UK
solar power.”
