This project will re-imagine how deprived areas of the UK can be decarbonised and regenerated through deep retrofit in a sustainable, attractive and desirable way. By placing local people at the heart of our approach, we will create solutions that facilitate adoption at scale. This will involve consideration of all stakeholders, including homeowners, planning authorities, landlords and local communities. Project partners VundaHaus and KIN will combine their experience of architectural design and Modern Methods of Construction to create a scalable solution to achieving healthy and thriving net zero communities.Through the development of an innovative off-site manufactured external wall insulation (EWI) system, VundaHaus aims to overcome significant industry challenges - such as installation time, cost, and skilled labour shortage - offering a scalable, cost-effective and sustainable approach to thermal efficiency.The project's innovation lies in its people-centred design and system thinking applied from the outset. Working hand-in-hand with local stakeholders, we will develop a scalable solution that addresses multifarious challenges presented by each retrofit project and fit individual preferences. By understanding the aesthetic, functional, and commercial needs of local communities and social landlords,we aim to produce retrofits that enhance neighbourhood aesthetics and promote regeneration while substantially improving energy efficiency, while driving down system and marginal cost making retrofit at scale viable for the first time.By focusing on specific deprived local areas, we intend to create a blueprint for a community and people centric approach to decarbonising and regenerating neighbourhoods, considering all local stakeholders to improve quality of experience and increase likelihood of adoption. This community-centric approach will lead to improved health and wellbeing, reduced carbon emissions, and stimulate economic growth through local jobs creation.This project represents a significant shift in the UK's approach to tackling emissions from heating our homes. By transforming the way we retrofit homes, we can build healthy, thriving, and sustainable communities, while tackling hard-to-abate emissions from domestic homes.

该项目将重新想象英国贫困地区如何通过深度改造以可持续、有吸引力和可取的方式实现脱碳和再生。通过将当地人放在我们方法的核心，我们将创建促进大规模采用的解决方案。这将涉及所有利益攸关方的考虑，包括房主、规划当局、房东和当地社区。项目合作伙伴VundaHaus和KIN将结合他们在建筑设计和现代建筑方法方面的经验，创建一个可扩展的解决方案，以实现健康和蓬勃发展的净零社区。通过开发创新的异地制造外墙保温(EWI)系统，VundaHaus旨在克服重大的行业挑战-如安装时间、成本和熟练劳动力短缺-提供可扩展、经济高效和可持续的热效率方法。项目的创新在于从一开始就应用了以人为中心的设计和系统思维。我们将与当地利益相关者携手合作，开发一种可扩展的解决方案，以应对每个改造项目带来的各种挑战，并满足个人喜好。通过了解当地社区和社会房东的审美、功能和商业需求，我们的目标是进行改造，以增强社区美学和促进再生，同时大幅提高能源效率，同时降低系统和边际成本，使大规模改造首次成为可能。通过专注于特定的贫困地区，我们打算为社区和以人为中心的方法创建一份蓝图，以脱碳和再生社区为中心，考虑到所有当地利益相关者改善体验质量和增加采用的可能性。这种以社区为中心的方法将改善健康和福祉，减少碳排放，并通过创造当地就业机会刺激经济增长。该项目代表着英国在解决家庭取暖排放问题上的重大转变。通过改变我们改造房屋的方式，我们可以建立健康、繁荣和可持续的社区，同时解决家庭排放的难以减少的问题。
