Display Energy Certificates & Advisory Reports
DECs are required for buildings of over 250 square metres which are at least partially occupied by a public authority such as a council, school, or health authority; and are frequently visited by the public. DECs are not required for private buildings, however, they can be valuable when identifying and implementing energy performance improvements and educating building occupiers.
Our DEC Expertise.
Assessors since 2008 (introduction of DEC legislation)
Government accredited software
Comprehensive knowledge of the legislation
Display Energy Certificates (DECs) show the energy performance of public buildings, using grades from A to G (with ‘A’ being the most efficient grade). DECs must be displayed in a prominent place, clearly visible to the public.
Our accredited DEC assessors have completed DECs across the UK. Working with local authorities, we are assessing buildings of all scale and type.
Our Advisory Reports contain recommendations based on 20+ years experience, a pragmatic approach to energy performance and knowledge of the industry’s most innovative energy technologies.
“You can be fined £500 for failing to display a DEC where required and £1,000 for not having an Advisory Report available.”
