6.2 Non-domestic properties. A non-domestic property is a building that is not a dwelling, such as a retail unit or office. In July to September 2024, 24,000 EPCs were lodged
Power-to-What?
Environmental benefits are also obtained if surplus power is used to produce hydrogen but the benefits are lower. Our environmental assessment of energy storage systems is complemented by determination of CO2 mitigation costs. The lowest CO2 mitigation costs are achieved by electrical energy storage systems.

2022 Grid Energy Storage Technology Cost and
The 2020 Cost and Performance Assessment provided installed costs for six energy storage technologies: lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries, lead-acid batteries, vanadium redox flow batteries, pumped storage hydro, compressed-air energy
How EPCs are shaping new developments in line with the EPBD
The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) These individual assessment reports are often rigid and designed to fit only one purpose, leading to inefficiencies and the perception that EPB procedures are costly and burdensome. Thus, the iEPB schema emerges as a key element in the introduction of new voluntary building assessment tools

Study of energy storage systems and environmental challenges
It is strongly recommend that energy storage systems be far more rigorously analyzed in terms of their full life-cycle impact. For example, the health and environmental impacts of compressed air and pumped hydro energy storage at the grid-scale are almost trivial compared to batteries, thus these solutions are to be encouraged whenever appropriate.
