… to decarbonising supply, buildings will need to be made more energy efficient. The insulation of 170,000 buildings in Liverpool is estimated to have a capital cost of £1.5 billion. To ensure fuel poor households are protected from the risk of higher heating costs, investment focus will need to be placed on the building and retrofitting of lower energy performance dwellings. TRANSPORT Transport…
… Connection to zero carbon heat distribution networks. Heat networks enable the use of large-scale waste and environmental zero- carbon heat supply. They can provide an output similar to that provided by a gas combi-boiler. They should be deployed wherever they represent a lower cost solution than individual heat pumps. X Retrofit of energy efficiency measures such as insulation of external walls, lofts…

Energy efficiency retrofit covering over 90% of buildings, and reducing overall space heat demand by approximately one-third. Modelling suggests that emissions saved through external solid wall insulation (a relatively expensive measure) is cheaper than the cost…
