Compliance and appeals
Building control and trading standards divisions of local authorities are responsible for ensuring that, when required, buildings have an Energy Performance Certificate.
There is a penalty charge of £200 for domestic properties for non compliance and the EPC must still be produced.
If you believe that you have been wrongly issued with a penalty you can request a review. Also, if you are not satisfied with the outcome of the review you may appeal to the county court within 28 days after you received notice confirming the penalty charge from your local authority.
