DISPLAY ENERGY CERTIFICATE DEC
Show Your Energy Use. Stay Compliant. Lead by Example.
At AMB Energy Assessments Ltd, we provide fully accredited Display Energy Certificates (DECs) to help public buildings across the UK meet legal requirements and promote transparency in energy performance.
A DEC shows the actual energy usage of a building over a 12-month period and is required by law for buildings over 250m² that are occupied by public authorities and frequently visited by the public (e.g. schools, hospitals, libraries, and council buildings).
Why Are DECs Important?
- Legal Requirement – Public buildings must display a valid DEC in a prominent location.
- Energy Awareness – DECs highlight how efficiently a building is being used in practice.
- Environmental Leadership – Demonstrate your commitment to reducing carbon emissions.
- Informed Decision-Making – DECs are accompanied by an Advisory Report, which provides practical guidance for improving energy efficiency and reducing costs.
What Happens If You Don’t Have One?
Failing to display a valid DEC can result in:
- Fines for non-compliance
- Reputational damage, especially for public organisations
- Missed opportunities to reduce running costs and improve sustainability
