Diagnostic Net-Zero Carbon Refurbishment and Supply Chains Procurement Tool (Carbon Diagnostics)

作为更广泛的英国2050年节能住宅和净零排放议程的一部分，英国政府已拨出20亿英镑用于绿色交易（绿色住宅补助计划），该计划将允许符合条件的房主和房东申请高达10，000英镑的优惠券作为经济复苏声明的一部分，用于节能住宅升级和改造低碳供暖技术。然而，有证据表明，目前有两个障碍阻碍政府实现预期成果。首先，虽然有各种各样的绝缘/节能选择，相对维斯建筑规格，有证据表明，它们必须优化，以达到预期的结果，这需要很长的时间和专业知识。其次，英国政府计划的一部分是刺激当地经济，但目前还没有数字工具，房主可以很容易地从广泛的承包商中选择所需的翻新行动。正是在这个前提下，该应用程序的总体目标是开发一个具有成本效益的一站式诊断系统，用于建筑物改造和供应链采购管理 **（碳诊断）**。这将是第一次有一个创新和全面的诊断系统来诊断建筑物，为建筑物改造提供说明性的选择，并建议能够实施翻新的合格承包商。

As part of the wider UK 2050 energy-efficient homes and Net Zero agenda, the UK Government has put aside £2 billion towards the Green Deal (Green Homes Grant scheme) that will allow eligible homeowners and landlords to apply for up to £10,000 voucher for energy-efficient home upgrades and retrofitting low-carbon heating technologies as part of the economic recovery statement. However, evidence suggests that two barriers are currently militating the achievement of the Government's desired outcomes. Firstly, whilst a wide array of insulation/energy-efficient options, vis-à-vis building specifications are available, evidence suggests that they must be optimised for desired outcomes and this requires a long time and expert knowledge. Secondly, part of the UK government initiative is to stimulate local economies, but no digital tool currently exists where homeowners can easily select from a wide range of contractors for the desired refurbishment action. It is on this premise that the overall aim of this application is to develop a cost-effective and one-stop-shop diagnostic system for building retrofitting and supply chain procurement management **(Carbon-Diagnostics)**. This will be the first time that an innovative and comprehensive diagnostic system will diagnose buildings, provide prescriptive options for building retrofitting and suggest qualifying contractors that can implement the refurbishment.
