Cambridge EPC ratings by band
Cambridge home EPCs lodged from 1 October 2025 to 30 September 2026 show band C as most common, at 50.0%, and band D after it at 26.7%. England's figure sits beside each band in the table.
The source is MHCLG live tables on energy performance certificates, and the figures come from table D1, for the Cambridge council area. Homes often get a new certificate when they're sold, let or improved, so this mix isn't the whole housing stock.
