Do you know the difference between an EPC and a DEC?
The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is part of a series of measures being introduced across Europe to reflect legislation which will help cut buildings’ carbon emissions and tackle climate change.
Display Energy Certificates (DECs) show the actual energy usage of a building, the Operational Rating, and help the public see the energy efficiency of a building. This is renewed on an annual basis.
It is a legal requirement to have these certificates.
How can I obtain a Display Energy Certificate or an Energy Performance Certificate?
An Energy Assessor, such as Teamwork Energy Bureau Services Ltd., accredited to produce display energy certificates for that type of building, is the only person who can produce a DEC and Advisory Report for your building.
Firstly the energy consumption data you provide will be reviewed by the assessor in line with the approved method. Adjustments may be made for occupancy, intensity of use, special energy uses, weather and climate.
The carbon dioxide emissions for the certificate are based on the adjusted energy consumption and total useful floor area and building type to give a measured CO2 emission per square metre.
Even if you don’t have the plans for your building, www.tebs.uk.com can provide this as an additional service.
TEBS are
also here to help your company increase profits by making energy-saving recommendations and saving you costs on utility bills.
