Overheating In Homes – The Big Picture

With the backing of government departments the Zero Carbon Hub (ZCH) and industry partners undertook a two-year project to take stock, investigate the extent to which the housing sector is gearing up to address overheating risk, and assess what changes to business processes and government frameworks could increase the resilience of the housing stock to extreme heat.

These report presents preliminary findings from the project, with a particular focus on reflecting what the housing sector has told us about their concerns and level of preparedness to tackle overheating. It is the ‘big picture’ on overheating. It is evident from the feedback the Zero Carbon Hub has received that many organisations are at the beginning of the journey. For others, processes intended to minimise overheating risk are being embedded in their businesses.
