Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) is an energy services model, which has been successfully applied across Europe for modernising buildings and facilities. The EPC service consists of a set of energy conservation measures normally implemented and managed by an energy service company (eg. ESCo).

The EPC model guarantees energy savings produced by a project. The savings are often sufficient to finance the full cost of the project. This low risk financing mechanism is fast proving to be a promising way to help building owners and users to substantially increase savings and bring project ambitions within reach.
