How is a Display Energy Certificate calculated?
A Display Energy Certificate (DEC) is calculated by assessing the actual energy consumption of a building over a year. This assessment includes various fuel types, electricity, and district heating and cooling.
Our accredited assessors can provide you with an efficient and cost-effective service to produce DECs for all your applicable buildings. Our service includes the following:
- Assess your estate and confirm which buildings fall under the directive
- Work with you to collate all required information and data needed for assessment
- Provision of electronic copy of the DEC and Recommendation Report, upon request an A3 laminated copy of the DEC sent direct to site for display is also available
- Submission of all documents to the governments central register.
DECs show the energy performance of a building by using an A-G rating system and how the building is performing, compared to the previous two DECs issued.
A valid Display Energy Certificate and Recommendation Report are legally required for every publicly funded building over 250m² that is frequently visited by the public.
For buildings between 250m² and 999m² a Display Energy Certificate and Recommendation Report are required every 10 years.
For buildings over 1,000m² a DEC is required annually, and the Recommendation Report needs to be renewed every seven years.
Fines of up to £1000 can be levied for non-compliance.
