  4. Flagship Home A 19th century house and 21st century energy efficiency technologies combine to deliver reduced carbon emissions, lower fuel bills and affordable housing in the heart of London

  5. Aim • Refurbish an existing HMO to high standards of energy efficiency • Provide affordable accommodation • Demonstrate the project to other landlords

  6. The Project • Typical Victorian terrace property in Knightsbridge • Conservation area but not listed

  10. Feasibility Study • Aim • To show private landlords it is possible to refurbish a building in a practical, cost effective way which reduces energy consumption and could save money in the long term.

  11. Feasibility study - scenarios • Minimum measures and costs to meet Standards • Incorporating energy efficiency measures and additional costs • Cost effectiveness

  12. Feasibility study – cost effectiveness • New roof extension • Self contained basement flat • Funding (EEC, local authority) • Solar hot water heating

  13. Technology - measures • Measures were chosen that would benefit landlords most in terms of saving money and being easy to maintain • Package of measures that took an integrated approach to: • Reduced heat losses; • Provide efficient, controllable heating;

  14. Technology – fabric measures • Insulated dry lining • Roof insulation • Glazing • Basement floor

  15. Technology – fabric measures • Heating and hot water • Mechanical ventilation with heat recovery • Lights and appliances

  16. Outcomes • Refurbishment will significantly reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions eg: • Energy costs expected to fall by 67% • CO2 emissions expected to be cut by 63% • NHER increase from 3.0 to 9.0
