What is Retrofitting?
Retrofitting an existing building offers the opportunity to audit and upgrade the energy performance of the building by implementing modifications to improve energy efficiency or decrease energy demand. Energy efficiency retrofits can reduce the operational costs, particularly in older buildings, as well as help to attract tenants and gain a market edge.
What Should I Consider?
There's many factors that should be considered. Some of them can include:
- Energy efficency
- Cost of renovation
- Cost to maintain
For utility upgrades, there's also factors such as the type of fuel or how big a space/how many people will be using it. For a detailed breakdown of the different retrofitting options available, see the Options page.
