SUMMARY:EcoHome Lab: Introducing the Home Energy Model (HEM)
DESCRIPTION:RESCHEDULED from February due to illness. \nFor over 30 years the methodology used to gauge the energy and carbon performance of UK buildings has been the Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP)\, but all that is about to change. Over the past few years Government has been working with building professionals to develop the Home Energy Model (HEM) which is due for publication shortly.\nWe are very pleased to be joined by Marianne Heaslip\, the Technical Director of People Powered Retrofit who has been working as part of HEM’s quality assurance and verification team. The session will introduce the key principles of the new methodology\, how it differs from SAP and what that means for how we model buildings to inform regulation (like EPCs) and design. \nSign-up here \n  \n*** \nNow in our regular monthly slot – every second Thursday of the month. A hangout for people taking control of their home energy usage and generation. We use open-source hardware and software to gain a better understanding of energy in our homes\, how to make the best use of the energy we generate and reduce energy wasted. \nCatch up on some of our previous sessions and presentations. \nUnless there’s a specific title to the session\, it means we have no scheduled speaker and it will be an open session. We welcome contributions.

SUMMARY:Eco-Renovation for Builders Online - November 2021
DESCRIPTION:Get ahead of the curve and be a part of the green recovery with this unique training course for Greater Manchester builders.\n\n\n Over the last year\, despite the pandemic\, there has been huge demand from householders wanting to make energy efficiency improvements to their homes. People Powered Retrofit has had over 180 enquiries\, over 60 clients in Greater Manchester planning their home energy improvements and looking for contractors. Jobs our clients are looking for range between £5\,000 to upwards of £100\,000\, with the average around £45\,000.  \n \nSo\, we know demand is there\, but we don’t have enough builders to do the work!  \n \nThis course gives you a starting point for getting into retrofit\, the future of the building industry.  \n \nLarge companies have to date taken the lion’s share of energy efficiency work in large social housing projects\, but the majority of the UK’s homes are owned privately and will need extensive eco-renovation works done as a part of general improvements and extensions in the coming years. Those homes need your expertise!  \n\n“The strength of this course is [course tutor] Nick’s depth of experience.

SUMMARY:Heat Pumps with Florence Collier
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to be joined by Florence Collier from Humbletee for an ‘Ask the Expert’ retrofit construction webinar.\n\n\n\nFlorence is a mechanical services engineer by training\, and a certified Passivhaus designer. She has advised architects and clients on how to reduce energy demand in buildings and at a larger scale masterplan level\, how to use energy efficiently in the buildings themselves (all sectors) and renewable technologies\, as well as broader aspects of sustainability\, such as wellbeing\, social value\, acoustics\, water conservation and green  infrastructure\, for example – whether through recognized protocols such as LEED\, BREEAM and WELL\, or using a holistic design approach.\n \n\nFlorence regularly runs webinars on heat pumps for Carbon Co-op and works as an energy consultant.\n \n\nFlorence will give a 10 – 15 minute introduction to her experience in the sector leaving us with 45 minutes for a Q&A and discussion. Please be aware that Florence cannot give advice on specific aspects of your building project (this isn’t a free consultation) but she can help you understand key principles and widen your understanding of heat pumps.\n \nThis event is for main contractors\, general builders\, joiners\, designers\, architects and consultants keen to deepen their knowledge around retrofit.  \nThis is the fourth in a series of retrofit construction webinars with top industry experts on topics ranging from airtightness to heat pumps\, sustainable building materials to insulation. It will be a chance for you to get your questions answered and meet other construction professionals.  \nOther events in the Ask the Expert Retrofit Construction series: \n\nWednesday 31st March 2021 – Airtightness with Paul Jennings\nWednesday 28th April 2021 – Solid Wall Insulation with Nick Parsons  \nWednesday 26th May 2021 – Sustainable Building Products with Neil Turner\, Ecological Building Systems\nWednesday 23rd June 2021 – Heat Pumps with Florence Collier\n\nSee recordings of previous sessions and others here. \n\n\n\nAbout us \nThis event is a part of People Powered Retrofit supply chain development work. We support businesses to connect with people keen to retrofit their homes.
