To meet the UK’s net-zero targets, we can’t just retrofit homes - we need to reimagine how retrofit is done. That’s why the Transform-ER (Transform. Engage. Retrofit) project is disrupting the status quo to transform retrofit from a fragmented 'cottage industry' into something genuinely scalable, structured, and repeatable.
Funded by Innovate UK and led by Energiesprong UK, Transform-ER is a game-changing project that brings together 13 partners with one shared mission: to create a cohesive, industrialised sector that delivers high-performance, cost-effective solutions through a standardised process - and enable one million home energy upgrades every year by 2030.
Now, one year since the start of the project, a new video showcases the progress that’s been made to reach these ambitions.
Watch the video to find out how the project partners are:
Developing a new data-led pipeline platform that matches homes with the right retrofit solution – providing landlords with recommendations like you’d get with Netflix or Amazon Prime!
Nurturing innovative, industrialised products to support the move towards a manufacturing-led retrofit approach.
Launching a purpose-driven delivery vehicle that uses alliancing to drive down risk, drive up certainty, reduce cost and create smoother project delivery.
Unlocking finance by building business cases that align diverse stakeholders' needs and financially incentivise all parties.
Radically rethinking resident engagement, helping people feel retrofit is being done with them – not *to* them.
Bringing together industry lessons into a Rulebook to help drive the retrofit revolution.
The next stage of the project will focus on delivering retrofit at scale through a new Community Interest Company (CIC). If you're a UK landlord interested in finding out more about a new way of delivering retrofit schemes, register your interest via this link.
