FutureFIt Oxford - Pathfinder Project

该项目旨在通过嵌入来解决牛津（郡）的改造和未来建筑的问题：暂定名为“FutureFit基于区域的嵌入（FABI）”。FABI的概念来源于“FutureFit一站式自由/开源软件”项目的最终可行性报告结果。FutureFit建筑是一个已经转变为自己有弹性和灵活的能源系统的建筑。改造实现了织物和能源效率，FutureFit更进一步，包括智能，可互操作的发电，存储和控制措施。FutureFit是改造后的下一步，需要在FABI项目之外进行全面开发。牛津59%的排放来自我们的建筑存量，第一阶段报告将改造的资金确定为关键的非技术障碍。因此，开发一种解决方案（通过投资）来资助建筑改造和减少碳排放，是在当地加速脱碳的一个关键里程碑。然而，这座城市在建筑脱碳方面面临着重大挑战。牛津很小，坐落在英格兰南部最偏远的郡，几乎没有足够的临界质量来吸引大规模的干预和投资；它的供应链小而分散；它有非常多样但古老的建筑。确定需要克服的一个关键障碍是中小企业在获得融资方面面临的挑战，特别是在当前高通胀和能源账单的环境下。我们对解锁私人投资的模型进行了调查，发现FABI在牛津（郡）具有显著优势。这项工作将建立在牛津郡现有的充满活力的创新生态系统上，围绕碳和能源问题，以及我们在吸引资金方面的良好记录。基于面积的插入（ABI），也称为基于权威的插入，是传统碳抵消和插入的替代方案。它为碳减排项目提供资金，但（与传统的抵消不同），它确保项目资金的价值保留在当地，为当地经济和社区带来好处。牛津文化中心要采用这一创新设施，现在需要一段试验期，以确保概念的验证，开发ABI在牛津所需的内部管理架构，开发“ABI准备”项目的管道，并吸引潜在的项目资助者。建立FABI将为原本无法进行的项目吸引私人投资，并为当地的FutureFit一站式商店（foss）开发一种自我维持的交付模式，从而导致改造交付的阶段性变化。

This project seeks to address the retrofitting and future-fitting buildings in Oxford(shire) through insetting: working title 'FutureFit Area Based Insetting (FABI)'. FABI was conceptualised from the final feasibility report findings from the 'FutureFit One Stop Shop FOSS' project.A FutureFit building is one that has been transformed into its own resilient and flexible energy system. Retrofit implements fabric and energy efficiency, FutureFit takes this a step further to include smart, interoperable generation, storage and control measures. FutureFit is the next step after retrofit and will need to be fully developed outside of the FABI project.59% of Oxford's emissions come from our building stock and the Phase 1 report identified finance for retrofit as a key non-technical barrier. Therefore developing a solution (through insetting) to fund retrofit of buildings and reduce carbon emissions is a key milestone to locally accelerate decarbonisation.However, the city faces significant challenges in decarbonising buildings. Oxford is small and sits in the most rural County in the south of England, with little critical mass available to attract large-scale interventions and investment; its supply-chain is small and fragmented; and it has a very diverse but old building stock.A key barrier identified to be overcome is the challenge SMEs face accessing finance, particularly in current climate of high inflation and energy bills. Our investigation of models to unlock private investment and found significant strengths of FABI for Oxford(shire). This work would build on an existing local vibrant innovation ecosystem in Oxfordshire around carbon and energy issues, and also on our strong track record of attracting funding.Area Based Insetting (ABI), also known as Authority Based Insetting is an alternative to traditional carbon offsetting and insetting. It provides funding for carbon reduction projects, but (unlike traditional offsetting), it ensures that the value of the project funding is retained locally to provide benefit to the local economy and community.For OxfordCC to adopt this innovative facility, a trial period is now required to ensure proof of concept, to develop the internal administrative architecture necessary to enable ABI in Oxford, to develop a pipeline of 'ABI ready' projects, and to engage potential project funders.Establishing FABI will result in a step change in retrofit delivery by attracting private investment for projects that would not otherwise go ahead and by developing a self-sustaining delivery model for local FutureFit One Stop Shops (FOSSs).
