EN1 is around the national average for energy efficiency.
Based on 13,528 Energy Performance Certificates, EN1 in Enfield has an average EPC score of 65 out of 100, placing it around the national average. To put this in context, the national average sits at 67. The most common rating band is D, with 6.0% of homes rated A or B and 78.6% in the C or D bands. Meanwhile, 2.1% of homes sit in the F or G bands — the least efficient categories. In practical terms, a rating of D means many homes here lose more heat than average — potentially adding £200-400 per year to energy bills compared to a C-rated home.
Most of the housing stock here consists of houses. Flats make up a notable 39% of homes here. Around 49% of properties are owner-occupied , while 32% are privately rented and 19% are social housing. Gas central heating is the main fuel source for 84% of homes, which is typical for urban areas across England.
There is genuine room for improvement here. If every recommended upgrade were carried out, the average score could climb from 65 to 79 — a 14-point jump that would lift the typical rating to C.

Frequently asked questions
What is the average EPC rating in EN1?
Homes in EN1 have an average EPC rating of D, scoring 65 out of 100 for energy efficiency. That figure comes from 13,528 certificates issued across the district.
This is broadly in line with the national average of 67 — neither particularly efficient nor particularly wasteful. A D rating typically means higher-than-necessary heating bills, especially in older properties without adequate insulation.
What percentage of homes in EN1 are rated F or G?
2.1% of homes in EN1 fall into the F or G bands — the lowest energy efficiency ratings. Nationally, the figure is 2.9%.
This is actually better than the national picture, suggesting the housing stock in EN1 is in relatively good shape — though any home rated F or G would still benefit enormously from basic upgrades. Landlords should note that F and G rated properties cannot legally be rented out under current MEES rules.
