Energy Projects Plus will be speaking at North West Retrofit Roadshow

July 25, 2013

Don’t miss the Retrofit Roadshow taking place at the ACC Liverpool on 3 September as all the key players from the region will be there. The Roadshow is a must for organisations looking to develop retrofit strategies; access the key players; capitalise on local retrofit opportunities; learn from best practice and see the latest innovations.

The government has pledged to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050 and to achieve this ambitious target we need to retrofit 700,000 properties a year – that’s 13,000 per week!

Retrofitting is upgrading existing buildings with energy efficiency or renewable measures in order to reduce the amount of carbon emitted.  The Liverpool city region retro-fit market alone is estimated to be in the region of £50bn and five months after the launch of the Green Deal the North West is leading the way as the region with the most Green Deal assessments.

This is probably due to our many pioneering initiatives. Project Viridis is a great example where a consortium of social landlords have signed up to a programme of work which will retrofit 100,000 houses in Liverpool.  Alliance is the UK’s largest procurement initiative for social landlords with over 1,170 members. Set up by Fusion21, they have instigated solar, insulation and heating agreements that have delivered extensive home improvements, created jobs and saved ££s off householder bills.  Greater Manchester Low Carbon Hub (part of AGMA) is also looking to deliver a range of low carbon projects that will provide several opportunities for low carbon suppliers in the region.

Peter Owen, Chief Executive of Energy Projects Plus, will be speaking at Retrofit Roadshow about large scale retrofit projects delivered in Merseyside.

 

The event that will explore the domestic and non-domestic challenges and opportunities by addressing:

  • The business case for retrofits
  • How the regions are meeting the retrofit challenge
  • Latest carbon reduction technology
  • Funding mechanisms and legal issues (ECO/Green Deal)
  • Pilot scheme learning and innovation
  • Delivery of retrofit activity at scale
  • Skills and training

This one day event will be packed with presentations, workshops and retrofit clinics with time set aside to network, plus a comprehensive exhibition of retrofit technologies.

Opening Plenary (Cllr Tim Moore, Liverpool City Council)

How the North West is meeting the retrofit challenge (Maggi Howard, Project Viridis & Anne Parkes, AGMA)
