Disclosure of data gathered to support an Energy Performance Certificate is prohibited by Regulation 29 of the Energy Performance of Buildings Regulations 2012 unless in accordance with specific provisions; sharing data outside these tightly defined parameters may create a criminal liability. There has been no change in the Government’s position in this area. Energy efficiency information from Energy Performance Certificates is available to housing associations from the Energy Performance of Buildings Register and the Open Data Communities website. We recognise that wider use of Energy Performance of Buildings data could support energy efficiency investment plans for building stock, making further progress towards net zero in both domestic and non-domestic properties. We intend to hold a consultation on potential changes to the Energy Performance of Buildings Regulations later this year and officials in my department are developing a proposal for sharing a larger subset of the data collected for Energy Performance Certificates with building owners.
