We are in the process of conducting stock condition surveys on our domestic properties to gain a detailed understating of our baseline. This data will guide future decarbonisation work and help set out a robust programme to facilitate this line of work, and help us as we endeavour to bring all our social housing stock to an EPC rating of C or above by 2030.

We have a work programme in place, which is fully budgeted for, to upgrade all communal lighting to LED’s and install movement detection sensors in all 560 social housing blocks.

When a dwelling becomes vacant, we have a programme in place to install SMART energy meters, to enable future tenants to monitor their energy use and make financial savings.
