SUMMARY:Innovate UK’s Net Zero Living Programme: Buildings and Retrofit
DESCRIPTION:Buildings and Retrofit\nInnovate UK’s Net Zero Living Programme supports 52 local authorities\, their partners and communities to overcome non-technological barriers to adopting and scaling up net zero solutions. \nThis webinar is the first of three sharing insights from the programme\, with the aim of helping wider stakeholders to benefit from the learnings\, best practice and expertise gained. \nWhether you’re a local authority thinking about different ways to approach retrofit\, a supplier\, innovator or a community wanting to tackle the challenge of upgrading our buildings\, this session is for you. We’ll explore some of the solutions successfully implemented by the Net Zero Living participants and discuss how to go about scaling them. \nWhat to expect\nWe’ll be joined by local authorities and government representatives to discuss their experiences of delivering innovative projects in their areas\, and highlighting some case studies that show the role and additional value that local government can bring in using its assets\, power and voice to unlock the local retrofit markets of the future. \nWe will also be launching our report\, Delivering Better Buildings\, which digs into how to grow a local retrofit market\, build skills and quantify the clear wider health\, social and economic value of retrofit.
