The UK-based Green Finance Institute have issued Financing energy efficient buildings: the path to retrofit at scale.

In December 2019, the Green Finance Institute established the Coalition for the Energy Efficiency of Buildings to stimulate action across the finance sector to support the decarbonisation of UK homes.

The report outlines the results from the Coalition’s first phase of work including a focused review of the domestic retrofit market, a portfolio of 21 scalable ‘demonstrator’ projects that were designed to unlock the barriers to investment, and policy recommendations that establish a conducive environment for rapid adoption and scale-up of energy efficiency improvements.

The report identifies further government policy measures that would help bolster the commerciality and scalability of the demonstrator projects, while also responding to the social and economic impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. A key recommendation is the inclusion of both energy efficiency and climate resilience investment in the government’s economic recovery plans.
