27% of our annual carbon emissions are attributed to the energy needed to run the UK’s buildings, with 18% alone coming from our domestic housing stock. With one of the oldest housing stocks in Europe and many new homes being inadequately built, the UK is currently facing the immense challenge of retrofitting over 28 million buildings by 2050. Expanding upon our retrofit activities and following an engaging introduction to the Passivhaus Retrofit Masterclass lecture series, we commence the full series this winter, taking an in-depth dive into achieving Passivhaus in several retrofit constructions. Learn first-hand from expert practitioners and enrich your practical and technical knowledge about how Passivhaus can apply to your future retrofit projects. The Masterclass lecture series is aimed at built environment professionals interested in designing and delivering Passivhaus retrofit projects, including: architects, engineers, consultants, contractors, and self-builders. It is estimated that each Masterclass lecture will be worth 2 PHI renewal credit points. Join us online for five 90-minute afternoon webinars. Running one session every month, the series addresses multiple constructions from solid wall to cavity construction, covering both residential & non-domestic challenges.
