Display Energy Certificate DEC
DO I NEED A DEC?
A Display Energy Certificate DEC is required annually for public buildings and those occupied by public authorities which have a total useful area greater than 250m2 and provide a public service to a large number of people and are therefore frequently visited by those people.
WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE A DEC
Failure to produce a Display Energy Certificate DEC to Trading Standards when required results in a penalty charge notice.
The penalty is £500 for failing to display a DEC at all times in a prominent place clearly visible to the public and £1,000 for failing to have possession of a valid Advisory Report. In addition to these penalties, it is still necessary to commission the documents.
