SE10 Lewisham North
Greenwich Rating C Score: 76 / 100

SE10 is above average for energy efficiency — better than most areas in England and Wales.

Looking at the energy data for SE10, this Greenwich district scores an average of 76 out of 100, placing it above the national average. Compared to the national average of 67, that puts SE10 above the norm for England and Wales. The most common rating band is B, with 55.3% of homes rated A or B and 39.1% in the C or D bands. Meanwhile, 0.8% of homes sit in the F or G bands — the least efficient categories. In practical terms, a B rating indicates well-insulated homes with efficient heating — energy bills here tend to be well below average.

The area is characterised by flats. Flats alone account for 77% of all certificated properties — a distinctly urban profile. Around 50% of properties are owner-occupied , while 31% are privately rented and 19% are social housing.

There is genuine room for improvement here. If every recommended upgrade were carried out, the average score could climb from 76 to 82 — a 6-point jump that would lift the typical rating to B.
