Introduction
This statistical launch presents Experimental Official Statistics primarily based on Power Efficiency Certificates (EPCs) issued for home and non-domestic buildings and Show Power Certificates (DECs) issued for buildings occupied by public authorities. The certificates are lodged on the Power Efficiency of Buildings Register (The Register) for England and Wales.
By way of many of the launch, the figures have been break up into England solely and Wales solely. If England and Wales mixed figures are required, they’re accessible within the ‘reside’ tables printed alongside this launch. All through the report, numbers have been rounded to the closest thousand. Share adjustments have been calculated utilizing unrounded figures. As a result of rounding, particular person figures might not add as much as the full.
Power Efficiency Certificates
An Power Efficiency Certificates (EPC) signifies the power effectivity of a constructing. The assessments are banded from A to G, the place A (or A+ for non-domestic properties) is essentially the most environment friendly by way of doubtless gas prices and carbon dioxide emissions. An EPC is required when a constructing is constructed, bought, or let and if a legitimate certificates shouldn’t be already in place. The aim of an EPC is to indicate potential tenants or patrons the power effectivity of the property. The requirement for EPCs was launched in phases and totally carried out for all properties by autumn 2008. EPCs are legitimate for 10 years.
Experimental Official Statistics
Experimental Official Statistics are outlined within the Code of Follow for Statistics as “new official statistics present process analysis”. They’re printed with a purpose to contain customers and stakeholders of their improvement and as a way to construct in high quality at an early stage.
These statistics are primarily based on info from EPCs lodged on the Register. This administrative information is topic to persevering with high quality assurance and enchancment (see Technical Notes on Knowledge High quality). They’ve been launched as a result of they’ve been judged to be of instant worth to events and to encourage consumer suggestions.
Show Power Certificates
A Show Power Certificates (DEC) is simply required for buildings occupied by public authorities over 250 sq. meters the place that constructing is steadily visited by the general public.
DECs present the precise power consumption of a constructing and are accompanied by reviews which give suggestions on potential power saving measures. DECs final for one yr for buildings with a complete helpful ground space greater than 1,000 sq. metres, or 10 years when the full helpful ground space is over 250 sq. metres and as much as 1,000 sq. metres.
DECs that may be recognized as ‘voluntary’ – some non-public sector organisations might select to have a DEC though they don’t seem to be mandated by the laws – might have an effect on statistical and information outputs. Due to this fact, ‘voluntary DECs are excluded from the printed dataset.
Protection
The Register doesn’t maintain data for all dwellings in England and Wales, as not each dwelling has an EPC (these are solely required when a dwelling is constructed, bought or let).
Some dwellings might have modified tenure because the date of their newest EPC. As an illustration, dwellings that had an EPC for causes aside from being let might have since entered the non-public or social rented sector.
ONS have led on an exploratory have a look at the EPC information evaluating with Valuation Workplace Company (VOA) council tax information to find out the protection of EPCs throughout England and Wales. Primarily based on their evaluation EPCs cowl round 60% of the housing inventory in England and simply lower than 60% in Wales. There’s a related proportion throughout all areas in England.
How the information ought to be used
How the information ought to be used
To judge tendencies within the power efficiency of buildings in England and Wales which have had an Power Efficiency Certificates (EPC)
To evaluate adjustments within the variety of EPCs between the identical quarters throughout years e.g. This fall 2021 and This fall 2020
As an early indication of recent housing provide
How the information shouldn’t be used
To depend the full constructing inventory in England and Wales. The Register doesn’t maintain information for each constructing, solely these with an EPC
To check throughout quarters inside a yr. The info have a seasonal sample and may solely be in contrast between the identical quarters throughout years e.g. This fall 2022 and This fall 2021
The info are aggregated and won’t touch upon particular person buildings
To trace power costs. The methodology used to evaluate power effectivity doesn’t take note of adjustments in power costs
