•DEC’s show the actual energy usage of a building, the Operation Rating, and help the public see the energy efficiency of the building.

This is based on the energy consumption of the building as recorded by gas, electricity and other meters. 

The DEC should be clearly displayed at all times to the public

•A DEC is always accompanied by an Advisory Report that lists cost effective measures to improve the energy rating of the building.

The Advisory Report element is valid for 7 years.

Non-compliance with DEC legislation will result in a penalty. The penalty is £500 for failure to display a DEC at all times in a prominent place clearly visible to the public and £1,000 for failure to have possession of a valid advisory report. This is in addition to the cost of a compliant DEC.
