Zero Energy Buildings Catalyst

The programme will run until June 2020 and will:

• Undertake the whole-house retrofit of homes in Devon, using the innovative Energiesprong approach
• Deliver significant energy savings on a difficult to treat public building in Exeter
• Support at least 80 enterprises in Devon to engage with new models of delivering whole house retrofit at scale

The project partners are Devon County Council (Lead), Regen, Energiesprong UK, Exeter City Council, North Devon Homes and Sanctuary Housing. Each of the social landlord partners will be providing homes in Devon to be retrofitted as part of the programme, during 2018 and 2019.

Business Support

Enterprises in Devon can apply for 12 hours of free support, by contacting mhoward@regen.co.uk. To be eligible, enterprises must be an SME (or community energy group with some economic activity), registered in Devon and looking to engage more with the whole-house retrofit market.

The support on offer is flexible, but will include:

• Technical training courses on energy efficiency, whole-house retrofit and new business models
• UK based study tours to see other demonstrator projects deliver whole house retrofit
• Toolbox talks and seminars in Devon, focusing on the ZEBCat demonstrators
• Support from the ZEBCat supply chain network that will build over time, offering networking and peer-to-peer sharing
