Commercial EPC Conventions

Please find below extracts from a letter forwarded by CLG to all Non-Domestic Energy Accreditation Schemes to pass on to their Assessors:

“As part of the on-going work to standardise data collection, and to ensure a uniformity of approach that will assist Non-Domestic Accreditation Schemes and energy assessors, please find attached the first set of Commercial EPC (CEPC) technical conventions”.

“The conventions are designed to improve the quality and the accuracy of Commercial Energy Certificates.  The conventions will, therefore, supersede any previous assessment process and previously published guidance.  With this in mind, further conventions are being developed and will be released in stages”.

Please click on the link below for the EPC conventions issue 1.  These conventions must be applied by all LCEAs on the 1^st June 2010.  The conventions will be included in future quality assurance checks thereafter.  Any EPCs lodged after the implementation date must, therefore, follow these conventions”.
