What do Domestic Energy Assessors (DEAs) do?

DEAs will be the work force that will fulfil the need in England and Wales to adhere to the Energy Performance in Buildings Directive issued by the European Parliament. Amongst its provisions It states that all domestic properties must have an energy report on them, or be able to have an energy report done on them by a qualified person by 2009. The Department of Communities and Local Government has therefore produced qualifications whereby this requirement can be met, the Diploma in Domestic Energy Assessment (DEA) and/or the Diploma in Home inspection (HI).

The EU Directive will be tackled iteratively and the sale and purchase of domestic residential property will be addressed first. Sellers of residential property will be required to produce an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) when marketing their homes as part of the new Home Information Pack Legislation that comes into force on 01/08/07. 4 bedroom properties will be the first to be applicable for the HIP, with 3, or more, bedroom properties "going live" on the 10th of September. DEAs and HIs will be trained to collect data and produce the reports on all domestic properties which will then be included as a mandatory document within the Home Information Pack. The data will include information on dimensions, construction, heating and other services that are provided to the property. This data will then be input into an approved software system which will generate the report.

The software will produce a graphic display and will rate the property’s current efficiency and carbon footprint and will compare that to its potential efficiency. The potential efficiency will be determined by modeling the property on the basis that simple recommendations included in the EPC are implemented by the seller or buyer.

What is an EPC?

An EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) is the final product that results from the inspection by the DEA and will have an A to G rating ( rather like white kitchen goods) on the graphic display below.
