Heating, Ventilation & Services; Building Fabric Decarbonise residents’ heating through wave 2 of the SHDF
T e government recently announced an energy price cap freeze. However, charity National Energy Action expects that even so, “6.7 million UK households could be…unable to aff ord to heat their homes to the temperature needed to keep warm and healthy.” It is clear that more needs to be done to protect people from fuel poverty. Improving the energy effi ciency of homes is crucial to tackling this. More than 80% of homes will still be in use by 2050 and 71% are EPC E, F & G.1. T e Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF) off ers social landlords the chance to upgrade housing stock currently below Energy Performance Certifi cate (EPC) C standard. T ere is up to £800 million of funding available to help deliver warm, energy-effi cient homes and reduce carbon emissions at the same time. Eliminating the carbon emissions from existing housing stock will leave it more comfortable for tenants, and cost-eff ective to run. Ground source heat pumps (GSHPs) are the most effi cient and eff ective way to decarbonise heating, the technology delivers heat with the lowest carbon emissions, lowest running costs and lowest lifecycle cost. GSHPs are eligible under SHDF and the funding could cover up to 88% of installation costs. Kensa are experts in supporting clients build strong funding applications and can project manage to install GSHP systems within the SHDF deadlines.
