Low

Criteria

Three-tier criteria
Criteria met if the council has completed an exercise to measure how much, approximately, it will cost them to retrofit all homes (to EPC C or higher, or equivalent) and there is a target date for when this work will be completed by.

First tier criteria met if the target date is before 2050, second tier criteria met if the date is before 2040 and third tier criteria met if the target date is before 2030.

This question applies only to councils that own or manage more than 100 council homes.

Clarifications

The council doesn't need to have all the funds available for the retrofit.

Home retrofit is the process of making changes to existing buildings so that energy consumption and emissions are reduced. These changes also provide more comfortable and healthier homes with lower fuel bills.
