Switchee: Transforming Social Housing Through Data-Driven Retrofit - Case Study
Introduction
Switchee is revolutionising the way large social landlords understand both the performance of their housing assets and the welfare of their tenants. Unlike traditional approaches that treat asset performance and tenant welfare as separate concerns, Switchee recognises that these elements are tightly intertwined. Cost and outcomes go hand in hand, and effective solutions require real-time, in-person data rather than relying solely on desktop models.

Switchee: Transforming Social Housing Through Data-Driven Retrofit
Switchee is a technology company transforming social housing by providing landlords with real-time insights into property performance and tenant welfare, through smart thermostats and connected devices. By integrating connectivity, control, and communication, Switchee helps address key challenges in retrofit programs—such as resident engagement, missed appointments, and inefficiencies in heating systems.
The platform enables landlords to monitor environmental conditions, optimise energy use, and communicate directly with tenants, improving access rates and reducing fuel poverty.
As the sector moves toward net zero, Switchee advocates data-led retrofit strategies and policy reforms, aiming to align incentives and deliver measurable value across housing portfolios.
