EPCs and Energy Retrofits

Upgrade Your Properties, Cut Costs, and Stay Compliant

Energy efficiency isn’t just good for tenants — it’s a legal requirement for landlords and can even turn into profit, if you do it right!

With new EPC rules on the horizon and increasing pressure to decarbonise housing, Yuno gives you the tools to upgrade properties efficiently and compliantly.

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rates the energy efficiency of a property from A (most efficient) to G (least). In the UK, an EPC is legally required to let or renew any residential property. Since 2020, rental properties must meet a minimum EPC rating of E. But change is coming.

From 2025, government proposals are expected to raise the bar, requiring all newly rented properties in England and Wales to have a minimum EPC rating of C by 2030.

The Risk of Non-Compliance

Failing to comply with EPC requirements could cost you — financially and legally. Risks include:

  • Fines of up to £5,000 per property (and potentially rising to £30,000 under proposed changes)
  • Restrictions on letting non-compliant properties
  • Legal action or prosecution against responsible persons
  • Rent repayment orders from tenants

How It Works What Every Energy Strategy Should Include
