All privately rented dwellings are required to have a valid Energy Performance Certificate when they are placed on the market. The English Housing Survey Private Rented Sector report provides an estimate of the proportion of privately rented dwellings in each rating band.

The Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities publishes data tables on all Energy Performance of Buildings Certificates lodged on the Energy Performance of Buildings Registers since 2008.
