6.2 Checking the authenticity of your energy assessore
All energy assessors must be accredited.
If you wish to check that an energy assessor is a member of an accreditation scheme, you can do this in two ways:
- verify the credentials of your energy assessor on-line via www.ndepcregister.com which provides a national register of accredited energy assessors. This will allow you to
search on the energy assessors name or accreditation scheme membership number
- ask your energy assessor which accreditation scheme they are a member of (and their membership number). The accreditation scheme can confirm that your energy assessor is accredited to practice as an energy assessor
If you want to find a suitably accredited energy assessor in your area to provide you with an EPC, use www.ndepcregister.com. This will allow you to search for a list of accredited assessors in your area that you can contact to do your energy assessment.

- level 4 – such as small purpose built office buildings
- level 5 – such as large office buildings or factories.
