Creating Healthy Homes
JDA Sustain takes the different facets involved in planning, designing and delivering retrofit projects and brings them together in a single package.
This package offers a sustainable process for RPs to create healthy, sustainable homes from existing housing stock.
A place driven approach to decarbonisation
ABOUTThe Challenge
England has approximately 27 million homes, many of which require significant energy efficiency measures. In fact, England has a large number of old houses, with around 20% of them built before 1919.
According to government figures, there are approximately 4.4 million homes owned by Registered Providers (Social Housing) across England.
This breaks down to roughly 2.8 million units owned by private Registered Providers and 1.6 million units owned by Local Authority Registered Providers. Additionally, there are approximately 4.6 million properties owned by Private Landlords.
The UK Government has set a target to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, and a significant part of this effort involves improving the energy efficiency of old housing stock, both private and rental properties.
Previous attempts to enhance energy efficiency in the housing sector have proven ineffective. In light of this, the PAS 2035 framework was implemented, which came into effect on July 1st, 2021. Under this framework, all retrofit projects must comply with its guidelines.
As per the PAS 2035 framework, all rental properties, whether they are Social Housing or privately owned, will need to have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating of at least C or higher by 2030.
our approach
JDA Sustain is a complete retrofitting answer for RPs. Upgrading social housing requires insight, compliance and coordination.
1. Funding Access
First, RPs need a clear understanding of funding channels and mechanisms. We can explore funding opportunities on their behalf and support them through the application process.
2. Sustainability Standards
Next, they require reassurance that retrofits will future-proof their projects by meeting sustainability standards. With our long experience in this field, we will ensure retrofitting projects follow all critical guidelines.
3. End-to-End
Our expert coordination ensures that all parties, including designers, planners and contractors, share a common understanding of project objectives. This helps to control costs and streamline the entire end-to-end process.
We’ve designed JDA Sustain to help:
15,000 Tenants
50 RPs
