PAN-LONDON HOMES ENERGY EFFICIENCYPROGRAMMEOVE
RVIEW PRESENTATION

Introduction

• The is an ambitious London-wide programme of
  retrofitting existing houses with energy
  efficiency measures.
• Delivers a whole house approach.
• The principal aims are
• reduce carbon emissions,
• achieve cost savings for householders,
• create green jobs and stimulate business
  growth.
• Offers something for every household in London
  and encompasses all housing tenures.
• Collaboration between GLA, LDA, London Councils,
  and London Boroughs.

London Homes - CO2 Contribution
Housing contributes 38 to the total CO2 emitted
attributable to London p.a.- 75 of that is from
heating
Londons total CO2 by source, 2006
Londons domestic CO2 by source, 2006
4
London Homes Building Type
London has a high proportion of flats which are
harder to retrofit
5
London Homes Tenure Types
Owner occupied homes are the single biggest type.
Social rented represents 26. Social rented in
general has some specific issues which need to be
tackled differently. Next slide.

London Homes - Wall-types
Many homes were built pre-1940 and hence 57 have
hard-to-treat solid walls

London Homes Hard to Treat Boroughs
Boroughs vary in potential benefit from loft and
cavity wall insulation inner c20, outer c35

Issues Summary

• Homes retrofitting for energy efficiency measures
  is a must have programme to make substantial
  progress towards a target of a 60 CO2 reduction
  by 2025
• Nature of Londons housing stock is not helpful
  LCWI will not get there alone, we need to look
  for innovative approaches
• Existing insulation schemes have made good
  progress but will not achieve the numbers
• Funding picture is unclear with limited life of
  current schemes
• To get to 3.9m tonnes target policy will have to
  change

11
Upscale
The current sub-regional schemes are not
delivering at the scale required to meet targets.
Key to this is funding. London needs to deliver
more homes and needs a bigger share of funding to
do it.

• Nationally, money exists. London needs to make
  it more attractive to those who spend the money
  to spend it here.
• CERT is the biggest single opportunity to do
  this.
• We do this by developing a programme which can
• Subsidise the current CERT delivery channels such
  that they can offer utilities CERT units
• Influence policy to ensure future funding
  channels such as CERT replacement are optimised
  for London
• Ensure that London has a proven scalable delivery
  mechanism in place to take advantage of future
  funding.

12
Enhance

• Build a programme that can work within the
  existing retrofitting schemes to
• bring a consistent delivery model to the existing
  schemes e.g. area based, accredited advice etc
• this will maximise the current efforts and
  enhance the experience for the consumer
• enhance existing schemes to help them deliver
  practical measures to homes that are hard to
  treat.

13
What would this do?

• Improving the uptake levels of the carbon
  reduction measures offered, to help reduce fuel
  bills.
• Supporting fuel poverty reduction.
• Attracting additional CERT funding and other
  funding sources to London.
• Reducing costs per measure installed.
• Potentially creating up to 2,000 jobs for
  Londoners.
• Improving social benefits uptake.
• Linking in with LAA and NI targets.
• Driving more behavioral change in residents.

14
Overall Approach
The programme needs to be phased to make the best
of the present/future.

• Work within the existing schemes, develop
  London-wide delivery model
• Three phased programme
• Phase 0 - Now until FY end scope and mobilise
  the programme.
• Phase 1 - FY10/11 to FY12/13 main delivery
  effort
• Phase 2 FY13/14 to FY14/15 scope to be defined
  during Phase 1.
• Concurrent effort on
• Lobbying Influence CERT replacement
• Communication Focus strongly on behaviour change

15
Phase 0 Technical Trials

• Running 3 small technical trials (approx 250
  homes in each trial) implementing the easy
  measures only (C100k).
• Gathering information on procurement, logistics,
  costs, uptake levels, CO2 credits, skills
  required, lead generation and wider technical
  issues.
• Share learning, trial approaches and obtain
  practical experience of delivering easy
  measures style packages using an area-based
  approach.
• Being delivered alongside existing schemes
  Boroughs/ sub-regions to determine how best to
  organise with their scheme managers.
• Technical Trials were awarded to London Warmzones
  LB of Hillingdon, CEN LB of Croydon, G-Ten
  LB of Southwark.

16
Phase 0 Technical Trials
What a package of Easy Measures might look
like.

• Key assumptions
• CO2 savings are taken from the most conservative
  sources available, where possible Ofgem
• Savings quoted in sources are scaled to be
  relevant for a London semi-detached home (shown
  above) and also for detached, terraced houses and
  flats
• Householder behaviour is critical in determining
  the actual impact of all the measures

17
Phase 0 Demonstration projects

• Series of demonstration projects Nov to March- c.
  1.3m and 5k homes. One in each Housing
  Sub-Region.
• Aims
• share learning,
• trial different approaches and elements of a
  delivery model
• obtain practical experience of delivering easy
  measures style packages using an area-based
  approach.
• Cover all tenures and house types i.e. hard to
  treat and are to include ways to tackle
  behavioural change within the home.
• Try to pilot PAYS approach

18
Sponsorship Buy-in

• The GLA, London Futures, London Councils, LDA and
  the London Boroughs are now jointly working
  together to further explore this opportunity in a
  collaborative way.
• A series of London Chief Executives retreats were
  held to discuss ways to improve the lives of
  Londoners.
• Four work streams were identified and carbon
  reduction was one of them.
• This project has been developed out of the carbon
  reduction work stream.
• London Boroughs of Hillingdon and Southwark are
  taking a lead on this.

19
Sponsorship Buy-in

• An extensive list of stakeholder organisations
  has been consulted to date.
• There is an opportunity to use the position of
  London chief executives and members to take a
  lead in this area, through encouraging a
  coordinated London wide programme.
• A level of engagement and interest has been
  achieved through boroughs volunteering to be
  involved. It is envisaged that after a period of
  active engagement all 33 boroughs will be
  participating in the project.
• The Project Team is working with the Housing Sub
  Regional areas to explain the scheme and gain
  involvement from Boroughs.

20
Governance Arrangements

• Fully collaborative programme
• Formal governance bodies kept to a minimum
• Representatives from key groups at all levels in
  the structure
• Wider stakeholders consulted via programme team
• Programme Board is the ultimate decision making
  forum, providing strategic direction and sign-off
  key deliverables
• Steering group is the extended working team and
  provides assurance to the Board as to the quality
  of the project outputs.
