display energy certificates (DEC)

ralph perry robinson made this Freedom of Information request to Department of Energy and Climate Change

Department of Energy and Climate Change did not have the information requested.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I have been unable to find a public central database for display
energy certificates. As I understand the legislation, all public
buildings over 1000 square metres have been obliged to display
these since October 1st 2008.

Can you explain why there is no public resource detailing these
buildings? The only method of accessing the Landmark database is by
collecting individual 20 digit numbers from specific buildings many
of which are inaccessible, although these are paid for by the
public.

There are apparently 18000.

Yours faithfully,

Ralph Perry Robinson

Dear Enquiry Enquiry (IMSV01),

Thank you for the response which was extremely prompt.
Unfortunately it did not answer the question, referring to a
publication that was produced a year before the dataset had been
created.

I have since spoken to David Welch, a manager at the FoI
department, and been assured that my request for information is
being considered.

Until then the request for a public record of public buildings'
energy usage as measured AT PUBLIC EXPENSE is requested.

Yours sincerely,

ralph perry robinson

Dear Mr Perry,

After much involvement from other Government Departments, along with the
Dept. of Communities and Local Government - the sponsoring department;
there is no reason why Landmark cannot give you the information
requested. Please see the following weblink for contact details.

Some of this data was released under FOI to Martin Rosenbaum of the Open Secrets blog, apparently due to changes in regulation:
