Retrofit at Scale: How Data is Key to Driving Decarbonisation

Buildings account for nearly a quarter of UK emissions, with heating a key challenge. High-quality data is vital for optimising energy efficiency, guiding retrofits, and unlocking finance, yet significant gaps remain in consistency and reliability. Bridging these gaps will be essential for accelerating the retrofit wave, scaling low-carbon construction, and mobilising capital.
