What is an energy certificate?

An energy certificate is an official assessment of a building’s energy performance. In England and Wales, the main building energy compliance documents include Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs), Display Energy Certificates (DECs) and air conditioning inspection reports. Separate regulatory requirements apply in Scotland and Northern Ireland. EPCs and DECs are produced by appropriately accredited energy assessors, while qualifying air conditioning systems must be inspected by an accredited air conditioning energy assessor who produces an inspection report. These documents fulfil different regulatory purposes and can identify opportunities to improve energy performance.

If you need an EPC for the construction, sale or letting of a non-domestic building, a DEC for a qualifying public-authority building, or an air conditioning inspection report for a qualifying system, TEAM Energy’s in-house assessors can provide the appropriate assessment and explain what the findings mean for your estate.

Why An Energy Certificate Is More Than A Compliance Document

Energy certificates provide a clear measure of a building’s energy performance while helping organisations meet regulatory obligations. Delivered by certified energy consultants, our energy certification services ensure organisations remain compliant while gaining clarity on building performance and future improvement opportunities.

Done well, energy certification can also support:

  • Improved asset performance and value
  • Reduced operational energy costs
  • Better preparedness for future regulation
  • Stronger sustainability and reporting credentials.

Our accredited Energy Assessors can deliver level 3, 4 and 5 non-domestic EPCs that are compliant with the requirements of EPBR.

In England and Wales, a building requires a valid Display Energy Certificate if it is occupied by a public authority, has a total useful floor area of more than 250 m² and is frequently visited by the public.

Our accredited Energy Assessors can deliver TM44 air conditioning inspections that are compliant with the requirements of EPBR.

Energy Certificate FAQs

What types of energy certificates are there in the UK?

There are several certificates designed for different purposes. Some measure energy efficiency, others demonstrate compliance for public buildings, and some assess air conditioning systems. Each has its own requirements and rules about when it is needed. The three principal documents covered by our services are Energy Performance Certificates, Display Energy Certificates and air conditioning inspection reports produced using the TM44 methodology.

When do I need an energy certificate for my building?

The requirement depends on factors such as whether you are selling or letting a property, operating a public building, or running certain building systems. Understanding which certificates apply to your situation is key to remaining compliant.

Who can issue an energy certificate?

Energy certificates must be produced by qualified accredited assessors. They are trained to carry out the relevant inspections and provide official documentation recognised by regulatory bodies.

How much does it cost to get an energy certificate?

The cost varies depending on the type of certificate, the size and complexity of the building, and the systems in place. A professional provider will usually give a tailored quote once they understand your requirements.

What are the penalties for not having the right certification?

If you fail to obtain the correct certificate, you could face fines, enforcement action, and delays in selling, letting, or operating your building. It can also damage your reputation with regulators and stakeholders.

What is the difference between an energy certificate and an EPC?

An EPC is one type of energy certificate. “Energy certificate” is the broader term covering EPCs, DECs and TM44 inspection reports.
