Buildings, in England and Wales, over 1000 m2 occupied by public institutions...
Buildings, in England and Wales, over 1000 m2 occupied by public institutions or organisations providing a public service and where the public visit regularly must now display a Display Energy Certificate (DEC) and regularly produce an accompanying Advisory Report.
Although the regulations came into force on 1st October 2008, much of the detail is unclear and we are aware that there is still some confusion in the sector on how the regulations affect institutions and how they can meet compliance. This has been shown particularly clearly through the EAUC’s online poll on DECs that has revealed almost 50% of those who have taken part are not ready, need help or don’t know what a DEC is! This Insight Guide is therefore essential in helping anyone responsible for buildings or energy in the education sector to understand what is required of them under the new regulations.
The EAUC would like to thank Alan Aldridge at ESTA for his valuable advice on the DECs regulations and for delivering the content for this Insight Guide. For further information on ESTA, please visit www.esta.org.uk.
