TF2 is around the national average for energy efficiency.
Based on 14,108 Energy Performance Certificates, TF2 in Telford and Wrekin has an average EPC score of 70 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 23.0% of homes rated A or B and 69.0% in the C or D bands. Meanwhile, 1.4% 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. Around 58% of properties are owner-occupied and 23% are social housing. Gas central heating is the main fuel source for 95% 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 70 to 84 — a 14-point jump that would lift the typical rating to B.

What percentage of homes in TF2 are rated F or G?
