Display Energy Certificates
A Display Energy Certificate (DEC) provides an overview of the annual energy
consumption of a building based on data obtained from the gas, electricity
and water meters. The certificate is accompanied by a mandatory advisory report
which outlines potential measures for improving the energy performance of the
building. The certificate must be replaced every year and a new advisory report
generated every 7 years.
At present Display Energy Certificates are only required for buildings occupied
by a public authority or an institution providing a public service to a large
number of persons. However, the Government has announced its intention to review
in the future whether this regulation should be extended to include private sector
buildings occupied by commercial organisations and visited frequently by members
of the public.
