Analysis of consumption levels for domestic consumers using metered fuels, split by EPC band, is available through the National Energy Efficiency Data-Framework (NEED).

This analysis is published online in “EPC tables 2012” at the following link:

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-energy-efficiency-data-framework-need-report-summary-of-analysis-2014

These figures are based on a sample of households covering England and Wales in 2012. The data does not cover non-metered fuels, or data on energy bills paid by domestic consumers.

Figures are also available which show the median energy spend required to maintain a defined, adequate level of warmth, across different EPC bands. These are published in the table 3.1 of the Annual Fuel Poverty Statistics report, 2014:

They are sourced from DECC's Fuel Poverty dataset, which is made available on the UK Data Archive.
