1. DISPLAY ENERGY CERTIFICATES & ADVISORY REPORT – IT’S COMING!!! Chrispal Anand Environmental Management Assistant Environment Team

2. Summary  Overview  DEC and AR  DEC at UoL’s Building  Certification Parameters  DEC for Your Building (Examples)  Future DEC

3. Overview  Non-dwelling buildings are responsible for almost 20 per cent of the UK’s energy consumption and carbon emissions.  Legislation - Energy Performance Buildings Directive (EPBD).  Requirement - Display Energy Certificate (DEC) and Advisory Report (AR).  This comes into effect from 1 st of October 2008.

4. DEC and AR  Buildings over 1,000 Sq.M.  Buildings which are visited by public.  The certificate gives information to the public about the building’s energy (gas & electric) consumed.  The common unit used is CO 2.  The certificate has a rating from A to G:  A indicates most energy efficient building; and  G indicates least energy inefficient building.

5. DEC and AR  What does DEC look like?

6. DEC and AR  DEC is only valid for 12 months (renewed every year).  Advisory report is valid for 7 years.  Need to be displayed in a A3 format.  Should be displayed in a prominent place (entrance to a building).  Failing to display a valid DEC – Fine of £500.  Failing to possess a valid advisory report – Fine of £1,000.

9. Certification Parameters  Metering data for gas and electricity use in building.  Time period (365 days).  Area of the building (Sq.M).  Number of hours occupied (need to be documented).  Degree Days.  Activity in the building (from the 29 benchmark).  Onsite renewable.  Separable energy use (Example: Regional server room).

10. DEC for Your Building  DEC for Ken Edwards Building  DEC for Computer Bio Centre  DEC for Henry Wellcome Building  DEC for Richard Attenborough Centre (without additional occupied hours)  DEC for Richard Attenborough Centre (with additional occupied hours)

11. Future DEC  Scope for improvement  Energy reduction  Additional occupied hours documented  Separable energy use (metered and energy assessed)
