Developing a plan for your retrofit interventions
Developing a plan for the retrofit interventions you will deploy in the project is one of the most complex and most technical tasks in the preparation phase. It starts with reviewing your housing stock, its type and condition, and leads to a plan for what you want to do with the stock to improve its energy efficiency and its performance. The goal is to create a specific project targeting a named set of buildings, with a practical series of retrofit measures that will deliver outcomes that meet your strategic objectives, including the needs of any external funders.
