Updated over 2 years ago

Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs) can easily be found on a per title basis on Orbital Witness, allowing you to:

  • Easily see all of the EPCs relevant to a title.

  • Sort EPCs by their rating, enabling you to identify EPCs below the minimum threshold.

  • Sort EPCs by their expiry date, enabling you to identify any expired EPCs.

  • View EPCs in full, exposing additional information such as floor area, the numerical EPC rating, and property type

To view EPCs on Orbital Witness:

  1. Navigate to the title you'd like to check the EPCs for

  2. View the "summary" tab

  3. Scroll down to the "Energy Performance Certificate" card, this can be found above the "Title Register" card

  4. The table of all EPCs for this title number will be displayed to you

    1. You can sort the table by any of the following:

      1. EPC address

      2. EPC type

      3. Rating

      4. Issued on date

  5. You can view any individual EPCs in more detail by clicking the 'View' button

Pro tip: For larger more complex titles, sort the EPC table by "Rating" or "Issued on" to easily identify any EPCs that are below the minimum EPC threshold or any EPCs that are expired.

How are EPCs matched to titles on Orbital Witness?

All EPCs are matched to title numbers via Unique Property Reference Numbers (UPRN). A UPRN is a unique identifier for an addressable location in the UK and allows us to link the EPC to a title number.

Some EPCs & do not currently come with a UPRN as part of their certificate, which means they will not be linked to a title number in Orbital Witness. Some title numbers also do not have a known UPRN so are unable to be linked to EPCs. This is something that is improving over time, but unfortunately isn't up to 100% coverage.

As a result, we provide the gov.uk link for you to check the EPC register directly.

Where does your EPC data come from?

We obtain our EPC data from the Open Data Communities. This data is updated on a quarterly basis and is also updated in Orbital Witness at this time.
