Buildings are responsible for one quarter of all greenhouse gas emissions and with existing buildings making up the largest proportion of our building stock, it’s critical we also focus on them as we decarbonise the built environment.
In this session we look at the importance of retrofits through case studies exploring portfolio-wide water and energy efficiency upgrades, commercial buildings and retrofitting in Australia and Singapore.
The webinar also covers:
- life cycle implications of retrofits
- potential risks
- challenges and how to overcome them?
- how to reach financial viability
- how can Government policy and programs encourage existing building renovations- especially in the mid-tier?
- why retrofit/ refurbish buildings including key drivers assessing the resilience of the building
