The range of SAP rating for new Part L 2006 compliant homes (minimum standards), is between 69 and 82, and new homes constructed using public funds are expected to have a SAP rating ranging between 75 and 86. These ranges fall between EPC bands B and C. The average energy performance certificate rating for new homes is band B. The next version release of the Domestic EPC Register will enable the tenure of new homes to be identified.
