Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) data for non - domestic properties in the West of England region (including North Somerset). The location data is the centroid of the postcode of the building. Detailed address data is not included as per EPC data and copyright restrictions.

We performed systematic mapping of EPC data applications by time, geographical spread, data features & auxiliary data used, problem domains addressed and complexity of employed data analysis. This mapping work was intended to answer the following questions: Q1. Which research studies have used EPC data (hereafter “applications”)? Q2. What input data were used by the EPC data applications? Q3. Which problem domains were addressed by the EPC data applications? Q4. How did the EPC data applications change within the study period?

Purpose:

To understand how the energy performance certificates (EPC) data has been used since introduction of the first national EPC registers.

Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs):An EPC provides information about how energy efficient a building is, and how the efficiency could be improved. Buildings are rated on a scale from A to G, with A being the most efficient. The EPC also provides:information on measures which could be made to improve the energy efficiency of the buildingan indicative cost for each improvementThe EPC is accompanied by a recommendations report which provides more detailed information about improvement measures. For further support and guidance, please visit the following: Scottish Government's EPC GuidanceStirling Council's Publication Schedule and Data:EPC Registry data is usually published quarterly and as an individual dataset - Stirling will publish a single dataset, updated incrementally with each released quarter, for its respective reporting year. For example, In March 2025, the latest release contains data up to and including Q3 2024 (end of September 2024).Copyright Information:Please ensure any user of this data has read, and complies with, the copyright information attached to each dataset. The Scottish Government has published these data as Environmental Information on the energy performance of buildings in Scotland. Publication is intended to contribute to delivering the Scottish Government’s policies to mitigate the effects of climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide data to facilitate improvements in the energy efficiency of buildings through research, improved management, and innovation.Non-Address DataAll data fields other than the address and postcode data (UPRN, ADDRESS1, ADDRESS2, POST_TOWN & POSTCODE) included within this dataset are licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0Address DataAny use of address data (UPRN, ADDRESS1, ADDRESS2, POST_TOWN & POSTCODE) not specified in Royal Mail’s copyright notice (refer to dataset description and licence) or covered by one of the copyright exceptions will require an appropriate licence.

Keywords: EPC, DEC

Data on the percentage of households living in dwellings with an EPC rating of C or above, by household characteristics using Census 2021. Household characteristics in these data include household composition, age of residents, resident health and employment status.

Data are provided to country, region and local authority level.

These are data from domestic Energy Performance Certificates (EPC). Duplicate EPC's are removed with only the most recent retained in this dataset. Locations are the centroid of the postcode in which the property falls, hence there may be multiple properties at each centroid location. Indices of multiple deprivation (IMD) deciles are also added to the data. These are related to the Lower Super Output Area of the property. These data help to inform the evidence base for Combined Authority investment in energy efficiency and environmental protection.

These are data from domestic Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) summarised by Lower Super Output Areas (LSOA) to preserve anonymity. Duplicate EPC's are removed with only the most recent retained in this dataset. Key attributes are summarised by percent and sum within each LSOA. This helps inform the evidence base for Combined Authority investment in energy efficiency and environmental protection.

The release covers certificates lodged between 2008 and Q4, 2015, and breaks the data down for each specified calendar quarter (Q1=Jan-Mar, Q2=Apr-Jun, Q3=Jul-Sep, Q4=Oct-Dec) within each specified calendar year.

The Q4 2015 figures will change in subsequent quarterly publications as the EPB Registers are updated with new EPCs and DECs.

The data are presented as ‘Experimental’ official statistics because they are still subject to evaluation and testing. As ‘work-in-progress', they may not meet rigorous quality standards. They have been released because they have been judged to be of immediate value to interested parties and in order to encourage user feedback.

The release covers certificates lodged between 2008 and Q4, 2015, and breaks the data down for each specified calendar quarter (Q1=Jan-Mar, Q2=Apr-Jun, Q3=Jul-Sep, Q4=Oct-Dec) within each specified calendar year. The Q4 2015 figures will also change in subsequent quarterly publications as the EPB Registers are updated with new EPCs and DECs.

Energy assessor accreditation schemes originally had the choice of lodging the underlying data used to produce domestic EPCs, in addition to the actual PDF document itself. After September 2008, lodging the data became a mandatory requirement. Due to the technical difficulty involved in formatting PDFs into searchable data, the statistics do not include data lodged as a PDF document only.

These statistics cover certificates on the energy efficiency of domestic and non-domestic buildings in England and Wales that have been constructed, sold, or let since 2008, and of larger public authority buildings since 2008. These statistics, therefore, do not cover the entire building stock across England and Wales but should be viewed as part of a wider package of Government’s provision of information on the energy efficiency of buildings.

This data is also available in Table LA1, available for download as an MS Excel Spreadsheet.

This dataset aligns with the work published in Centre for Net Zero's report "Hitting the Target". In this work, we simulate a range of interventions to model the situations in which we believe the UK will meet its 600,000 heat pump installation per year target by 2028. For full modelling assumptions and findings, read our report on our website.

The code for running our simulation is open source here.

This dataset contains over 9 million households that have been address matched between Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) data and Price Paid Data (PPD). The code for our address matching is here. Since these datasets are Open Government License (OGL), this dataset is too. We basically model specific columns from various datasets, as set out in our methodology section in our report, to simplify and clean up this dataset for academic use. License information is also available in the appendix of our report above.

The EPC data loaders can be found here (the data is here) and the rest of the schemas and data download locations can be found here.

Note that this dataset is not regularly maintained or updated. It is correct as of January 2022. The data was curated and tested using dbt via this Github repository and would be simple to rerun on the latest data.

The schema / data dictionary for this data can be found here.

Our recommended way of loading this data is in Python. After downloading all "parts" of the dataset to a folder. You can run:

Energy Performance Data for Non-domestic Buildings:This dataset presents data from every valid non-domestic EPC assessment held by the Scottish EPC Register (SEPCR) from commencement of central lodgement of the current EPC format to the SEPCR in October 2014 to September 2024. The data was extracted from the register on 25 October 2024.The data is published as a single file. Historic records (where a newer assessment of a building is lodged) and records lodged but subsequently marked ‘not for issue’ (usually due to an error in lodged data) are not reported. The data published in this extract is made available as Environmental Information for data analysis and to enable research into energy efficiency issues. The data must not be relied upon to verify if a valid EPC exists for a building, nor as the basis for the provision of energy improvement advice for a building. To check for compliance with regulatory requirements, a search for a valid EPC for a building should be undertaken at the Scottish Energy Performance Certificate Register. Please note that this data is not personal data in its published form. Persons accessing this dataset should be aware that if processing falls within the scope of the United Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation, or The Data Protection Act 2018, they will become a data controller and must comply with the data protection legislation. In line with the Scottish Government's Open Data Strategy, this data is published in a three-star format (data which is made available online, in an open and machine-readable format – see below for copyright information).
