EPC assessments in Gwent

Gwent — the area around Newport and the South Wales Valleys — has a largely working-class Victorian and inter-war terrace housing stock, with many properties built to house workers in the steel, coal, and manufacturing industries. Newport's NP postcodes have seen significant regeneration investment, but a large proportion of the county's older terrace housing rates D or below on the EPC scale, with loft insulation and heating efficiency improvements the most common recommendations.
