Summary
Join the Welsh Zero Carbon Hwb for an online event exploring how collaboration with residents – during design stage, handover and occupation – can help social housing providers deliver low carbon homes which are energy efficient and comfortable for tenants from day one.
Organised by the Good Homes Alliance, this session will feature…
- Pioneering co-design learnings from the Transforming Homes project, which includes the low carbon retrofit of 1920s social housing on the Town Hill estate in Swansea.
- TPAS Cymru sharing how tenant engagement supports net zero delivery, drawing on what tenants have shared about their lived experience of homes and energy, and what needs to be in place for net zero to succeed at scale.
- Insights from Max Fordham, a member of the GHA’s Building Performance Network, who are leading the way on delivering Post-Occupancy Evaluation (POE) in practice.
