Use the tool below to go directly to the GOV.UK EPC register.
Search by postcode
Most people start here. You’ll be taken to the official register to choose your address.
Don’t know the postcode? You can still search by street and town on the register.
Search by certificate number
If you have the EPC certificate number (often formatted like 0000-0000-0000-0000-0000), you can go straight to it.
Tip: the certificate number is usually near the top of an EPC email or PDF/printout.
We believe transparency builds trust. This tool takes you directly to GOV.UK so you can verify EPC details yourself.
What Is the EPC Register?
The Energy Performance Certificate register is the official UK database containing EPC certificates for properties.
The register is maintained by the government and allows anyone to check a property’s energy rating and certificate details.
The register includes:
- domestic EPC certificates
- commercial EPC certificates
- display energy certificates for public buildings
Why You Might Need to Find an EPC
Common reasons people search for EPC certificates include:
- checking the rating before buying a property
- confirming whether a certificate is still valid
- providing the EPC when selling or renting a home
- reviewing energy efficiency recommendations
EPC certificates remain valid for 10 years, unless a new assessment is carried out.
What If My Property Doesn’t Have an EPC?
If your property does not appear on the EPC register, it may mean:
- the property has never been assessed
- the certificate has expired
- the address has been entered differently in the register
If you need a new certificate, you can arrange an EPC assessment with an accredited energy assessor.
