Scaling-up deep retrofit for social landlords

This will be a collaborative research project that seeks to develop a sustainable business model for social landlords to deliver low-carbon, whole-house retrofit for hard-to-treat homes. Over 12-months the team will establish a baseline of properties, tenant perspectives, risks and costs. Through systems modelling they’ll review existing solutions, shortlisting the most promising technologies, design and create specifications that detail whole life costings, different business models and business cases. They will also  identify opportunities for replication of the model across a range of typologies to provide a commercially-viable dissemination service package to the housing industry.
