MTS Display EPCs
Display Energy Certificates (DECs) are designed to show the energy performance of public buildings.
They use a scale that runs from A to G - A being the most efficient and G being the least. Public authorities must have a DEC for the buildings if all the following are true;
It's at least partially occupied by a public authority (e.g. council, leisure centre, college, NHS trust) It has a total floor area of over 500 square metres. It's frequently visited by the public.
Where the building has a total useful floor area of more than 1,000m2, the DEC is valid for 12 months. The accompanying advisory report is valid for seven years. Where the building has a total useful floor area of between 500m2 and 1,000m2 the DEC and advisory report are valid for 10 years.
Public authorities must display their DEC in a prominent place clearly visible to the public, e.g. near the building's entrance. They can be fined £500 if they don't.
