Delivering Retrofit at Scale
Join our webinar on "Delivering Retrofit on Scale," where we discuss the importance of property-specific improvements and energy modelling for successful funding applications, highlighting the role of Retrofit Coordinators in guiding landlords through the process.
Topics of discussion:
Landlords often submit incomplete data for funding applications, which are hampered without PAS 2035 SAP modelling. Retrofit coordinators help by assessing feasibility and value. Parity tools aid in delivering funded schemes through an integrated approach. IoT sensors provide real-time data for evaluating retrofit performance, while advanced analytics enhance scalability by processing large data sets to improve decision-making and resource allocation.
