What is this session about?
Energiesprong is a Dutch-developed revolutionary whole house refurbishment and funding approach for achieving net-zero homes. It is designed to unlock zero carbon retrofit at scale, paid for by energy and maintenance savings and delivered by a new high-tech industry with guaranteed actual performance, comfort and costs long term – resulting in warm, affordable, desirable homes for life.
Homes are fully insulated using offsite manufactured wall and roof panels in conjunction with pre-assembled ‘energy pods’ providing low-carbon, high efficiency heating, hot water and renewable energy production. One of the exciting innovations that underpins the Energiesprong deep retrofit model is that the contractor (Solution Provider) signs a performance guarantee, ensuring that the in-use energy use and generation are in line with the approved design.
Energiesprong UK has just launched its first performance report, sharing highlights and honest learning from 69 retrofitted homes across 6 schemes. From the massively reduced impact on the grid to why there's room for improvement on energy services, join Dr Zack Gill – Net Zero Technical Analyst and the author of the report to discover the key findings from this data.
