Home energy improvements could save £770 million a year from household energy bills by 2030 and save £500 million a year for the NHS (LGA,2022). But, identifying and then supporting the people in most in need of home energy improvements and energy efficiency measures is challenging, time consuming, and often ineffective for local authorities, social housing providers utility companies and other organisations involved with decarbonising housing.Our solution is the Fairer Warmth App that will provide a dynamic, digital interface between households and organisations (such as local authorities) who are wishing to support communities and gain insights into where strategic investments should be made.It will be used by households to access simple energy efficiency advice that can make their homes more comfortable and economic to run, quickly assess eligibility for grants, and target retrofit and home energy efficiency measures.It will be used by organisations such as local authorities, social housing providers and utility companies to more efficiently allocate loans and grants for household retrofit and to understand housing stock retrofit requirements in detail and at scale - supporting the development of Local Area Energy Plans (LAEPs)The Fairer Warmth App will deliver a range of societal impacts that include:* Enable those households struggling with bills to make their homes more energy efficient and enable organisations to allocate funds to those most in need.* Help pull many households out of fuel poverty -- contributing towards saving £500 million a year for the NHS (LGA,2022), and engage people in the decarbonisation agenda.* Reducing public sector spending on community outreach associated with finding the people in most need of retrofit.* Speed up the pace of retrofit and energy efficiency measures.* A significant impact on Net Zero, reducing overall energy use -- saving both gas and electricity.* Help people keep their homes warms, reducing the associated health impacts.In summary, if adopted widely, the Fairer Warmth App could have a transformational impact and be a key facilitator for net zero and self-driven health improvements throughout the UK.

到2030年，家庭能源改善每年可以从家庭能源账单中节省7.7亿英镑，每年为NHS节省5亿英镑（LGA，2022）。但是，对于地方当局、社会住房提供商、公用事业公司和其他参与脱碳住房的组织来说，识别并支持最需要家庭能源改善和能源效率措施的人是一项具有挑战性、耗时且往往无效的工作。我们的解决方案是公平温暖应用程序，它将提供一个动态的、家庭和组织之间的数字接口（如地方政府）希望为社区提供支持并了解应在何处进行战略投资的人。家庭将使用该网站获得简单的能源效率建议，可以使他们的家庭更舒适和经济运行，快速评估赠款资格，并有针对性地改造和家庭能源效率措施。它将被地方当局，* 社会住房提供者和公用事业公司更有效地分配用于家庭改造的贷款和赠款，并详细和大规模地了解现有住房的改造要求，支持地方能源计划（LAEP）的发展公平温暖应用程序将提供一系列的社会影响，包括：* 使那些挣扎在账单，使他们的家庭更节能，并使组织分配资金给那些最需要的人。*帮助许多家庭摆脱燃料贫困-每年为NHS节省5亿英镑（LGA，2022），并让人们参与脱碳议程。减少公共部门在社区外展方面的支出，以寻找最需要改造的人。加快改造和能源效率措施的步伐。*对净零排放产生重大影响，减少总体能源使用--节省天然气和电力。*帮助人们保持房屋温暖，减少相关的健康影响。总之，如果广泛采用，Fairer Warmth应用程序可能会产生变革性的影响，并成为全英国净零和自我驱动健康改善的关键促进者。
