What is Retrofit?
As the UK moves towards achieving its Net Zero targets, there is an increasing demand for sustainable and energy-efficient buildings. This not only involves constructing new buildings with these attributes but also upgrading older constructions to improve their energy efficiency and
reduce carbon emissions. Many existing buildings were built before modern energy-saving techniques became available, making retrofitting a critical process. Retrofitting enhances the performance of existing buildings by making them more comfortable, energy-efficient, and sustainable. This can include incorporating new systems designed for high energy efficiency and low energy consumption. Examples of retrofit measures include adding loft or wall insulation, installing double or triple glazing, or replacing traditional gas boilers with ground- source or air-source heat pumps. Through retrofitting, we can significantly reduce the energy consumption and carbon footprint of older buildings, contributing to a more sustainable future for us all.
​
