ICE Retrofit Solutions for Non-Domestic Buildings 2012

Wednesday 26 September 2012

ICE Retrofit solutions for non-domestic buildings 2012 will bring together the retrofit supply chain to overcome some of the challenges associated with retrofitting the buildings in which we work.

 Approximately 45% of the UK’s carbon emissions come from the built environment, including 20% from non-domestic buildings. Estimates are that 80% of the buildings that will be standing in 2050 have already been built. To achieve the Government’s commitment to lower carbon emissions by 80% by 2050 the need to improve the sustainability of our buildings is undeniable.

ICE Retrofit Solutions for Non-Domestic Buildings 2012 will bring together the retrofit supply chain to overcome some of the challenges associated with retrofitting the buildings in which we work.

The conference will deliver case studies of successful retrofit schemes, detailing sources of finance, procurement methods, the physical installations and the engagement with buildings’ users to ensure that the measures are correctly used.

Delegates will:

  • Understand from end users, including Marks & Spencer, TfL and Land Securities, what they want from the supply chain
  • Improve their understanding of BREEAM and Ska and the appropriate applications of each through discussion with BRE and RICS
  • Gain a better understanding of the UK Climate Change Act through Q&A with the Committee on Climate Change
  • Understand the importance of modifying occupants’ behaviour as well as the fabric of the building
  • Grow their business by making new connections with senior decision makers from across the construction industry
