Sustainability & Environmental Consulting

Bioregional developed a scalable deep retrofit solution for Adamson Court, a social housing development in Bedfordshire, UK. The primary challenge faced by the client, Places for People, was to create a financially viable solution that would significantly reduce energy consumption in hard-to-treat properties while also extending the life of their assets and mitigating the impact of rising energy prices on residents.

The tailored solution involved a comprehensive deep retrofit model that not only addressed energy efficiency but also aimed to minimize energy costs for residents. This innovative approach was designed to be replicable, allowing for broader application across similar social housing projects. The project was recognized for its ambition and professionalism, ultimately meeting all objectives set by the client.

As a result of this initiative, the deep retrofit at Adamson Court successfully drove down energy use, providing substantial financial relief to residents and generating income for the social landlord. This case exemplifies how targeted sustainability efforts can lead to significant benefits for both the community and the housing provider.
