This report analysed data from Innovate UK’s £8 million Building Performance Evaluation Programme. It found that many homes were not meeting performance expectations. These expectations include the UK commitment to reduce greenhouse gases by up to 80% by the year 2050.
The report found that some homes had problems adopting new technologies, such as:
- solar water heaters
- heat-recovery ventilation
- automatic blinds
- heating controls.
The data in this report is aimed to help the following groups:
- designers
- developers
- policymakers.
