What is an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)? An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a certificate that indicates how much energy is being used to operate a building and is shown on a performance scale of A to G. The EPC is valid for 5 years. Example of an Energy Performance Certificate for a building EPC Regulation in South Africa In 2020, the Minister of Mineral Resources and Energy has, under section 19(1)(b) of the National Energy Act, 1998 (Act No. 34 of 2008), set out regulations that an EPC is required to be publicly displayed at the entrance of all buildings that fall into the criteria for compliance. Buildings in the private sector that are over 2000m² and buildings that are over 1000m² in the public sector are now required to display an EPC at their entrance. Penalties for non-compliance are defined as a R5 million fine, five years’ imprisonment, or both, should an organisation not comply with the legislation by the December 2025 deadline.
