Retrofit your Home to Save Energy. Please join our Energy Team online event
Wednesday 10 May at 7.30pm
We have some of the oldest housing stock in Europe, and around 20% of our total carbon footprint is due to domestic heating. How can we reduce this and still keep our homes cosy.
Retrofit means improving an existing building in such a way as to greatly increase its energy efficiency and reduce its carbon-emissions. This could include repairs, better insulation and ventilation, and new low-carbon heating systems.
