What it does to your grade

Wind turbine typically adds 4.7 EPC points, at about £580 a point. A grade band is 11–14 points wide, so on its own it rarely moves a whole grade — it is bought for the points, and combined with the other cheap measures on the list.

DCa grade costs roughly £6,962 at this measure’s rate
