Display Energy Certificates
Display Energy Certificate
All public buildings with a total floor area exceeding 500 square meters are required to prominently display a valid Display Energy Certificate (DEC) at the entrance. The DEC provides an actual rating of the building’s energy consumption, based on a full year of energy bills, rather than a projected rating like an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC).
The expiration date of a DEC depends on the size of the property. Larger buildings typically require more frequent assessments to ensure ongoing compliance with energy efficiency standards. DEC assessments are crucial for monitoring and improving the energy performance of public buildings, helping to reduce carbon emissions and operating costs.
Display Energy Certificates are an important tool for raising awareness about energy consumption and encouraging the adoption of energy-efficient practices. By displaying a DEC, building owners and managers demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. Compliance with DEC requirements is essential for meeting regulatory obligations and avoiding potential penalties.
We offer EPCs for all types of businesses, including:
• Retail • Leisure • Care homes • Workshops • Warehouses • Hospitality • Healthcare
Your business or property needs to be compliant with the correct regulations. An up-to-date EPC will illustrate your building’s carbon emissions and energy efficiency. Don’t fall foul of the MEES regulations: contact us today. We look forward to helping you.
