The scheme will link up housing providers and builders through all stages of home retrofitting, from planning through to large-scale delivery. This will dramatically increase the pace of projects that upgrade cold, damp housing stock to homes fit for the future. The partnership has the potential value of £10 billion in retrofit works, which would create around 150,000 jobs over the decade. The Innovation Partnership is open to social housing providers across the UK, with at least £5 billion estimated that could be spent in London.The Mayor has also been backed by the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) for London to lead the country by creating a national retrofit centre of excellence to help assist social housing providers gain access to funding for major retrofit projects. The centre will build on the Mayor’s successful Retrofit Accelerator – Homes which aims to transform the way London retrofits its ageing and energy-inefficient housing to create warm, affordable and ultra-low carbon homes. It will also directly help social housing providers develop plans to improve their chances of being successful through the next round of the £160m Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund.This is part of the necessary work to increase the quality and speed of retrofits, enabling social housing landlords to cut carbon emissions and reduce heating costs for thousands of homes and thus tackling the growing issue of fuel poverty. Social housing providers across England will be able to access free support from Summer 2021. | Finance secured | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | |||||||||||

LED lights save around 60% energy usage compared to their sodium counterpart, reducing costs and saving thousands of tonnes of carbon emissions involved in electricity generation. They contain negligible toxic materials and are expected to last 20 years. What’s more, LED lights can be dimmed, controlled and monitored via improved and longer-lasting “Telecell” radio units at Essex Highways. When all these lights are converted to LED, Essex will save approximately £2.2M a year in energy and maintenance costs, as well as reduced carbon taxes. The LED conversion project will deliver financial payback over ten years and a net saving of £39M over 25 years. Electricity consumption on the affected lighting stock is estimated to reduce by at least 60% as a result of the LED conversion project. | Finance secured | 26800000 | 26800000 | Local | 26800000 | https://www.essexhighways.org/roads-and-pavements/street-lighting/replacement-by-leds-programme | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | ||

The first phase of funding, launched on 4th August 2020, £200 million was available to Local Authorities in England to upscale existing and new proposals that will deliver home upgrades to low-income, fuel poor households in their local areas. ECC (lead partner) alongside a consortium of 7 Essex Local Authorities (LAs) received £813,245 of funding. The funding will provide an average of £10,000 per property for residents to improve the energy efficiency of their homes with measures such as solid wall/cavity/roof/floor insulation, heat pumps, double glazing, heating controls, solar thermal etc. that will improve its energy efficiency. ECC’s primary aims are to: - Support the low-income residents of Essex to improve their living standards through energy and cost saving measures which have significant health benefits. - Improve the energy intensive housing stock across Essex which in turn consume more energy and therefore contribute to more carbon emissions. - Drive growth of the green economy within Essex to deliver the measures, safeguarding and creating jobs within Essex. To date installations in 28 properties have been completed with a further 38 in the pipeline. | Finance secured | 813245 | 0 | Other, please specify: UK Central Government | 813245 | https://www.essex.gov.uk/cut-energy-costs/green-homes-grant-local-authority-delivery-scheme | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | ||||

These activities are enabled in part by performance contracting activities, utility programs, and public entity capital improvement programs. The city of Las Vegas has launched the state’s first Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) program, a new effort designed to provide long-term investments in clean energy for commercial property owners. C-PACE was enabled by the 2017 Nevada Legislature and adopted in November 2018 by the Las Vegas City Council. Under this program, which is commonly found in other parts of the country, owners of existing commercial properties will be able to finance up to 100 percent of the cost of energy efficiency improvements and renewable energy projects for up to 25 years through a special assessment placed on the property. Project financing is provided by private capital providers in an open market and repaid through the assessment. Since the financing is tied to the property, the owner is not required to sign a personal guarantee and the C-PACE assessment can transfer to a new owner upon sale. For a project to be eligible, the project’s estimated energy cost savings must exceed the financing amount, providing a positive cash flow for the property owner; property owners, in turn, reduce their energy costs and may improve the value of their building—all with no upfront, out-of-pocket costs. The City selected Sustainable Real Estate Solutions (SRS) to serve as the third-party administrator of the C-PACE program. SRS will handle outreach, education, project underwriting and quality assurance services and is anticipated to launched the program in 2019. | Finance secured | 0 | 0 | Public-private partnership | http://www.vegascpace.com | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | Question not applicable | ||||||
