Ratings by band for EPCs in Liverpool
Band C led the home EPCs lodged in Liverpool between 1 October 2025 and 30 September 2026, at 62.7%, with band D next at 24.4%. Each band in the table sits beside the England figure.
The data is from table D1, for the Liverpool council area, in the MHCLG live tables on energy performance certificates. Selling, letting or improving a home often triggers a new certificate, so this mix isn't the whole housing stock.

Finding a Liverpool home's EPC
Use a postcode to search the GOV.UK register, then pick the address; it's free to view and save a certificate. An EPC stays valid for 10 years, so look at its date (how long an EPC lasts). When a home doesn't show up, the EPC register page says what to do.
