“Retrofit & Replicate”
- exemplar terraced house refurbishment
Date
- Government had am 80% reduction CO2,
based on a ‘whole house’ approach
- Energy breakdown for dwellings
− 61% space heating − 23% hot water − 13% lighting and appliances − 3% cooking
- The priorities are:
− to minimise heat losses from the building fabric; − to install an easily replicable, efficient form of space and water heating; − to reduce the energy requirements for lighting; − to utilise the most appropriate renewable forms of micro-generation
