What we’re doing

We’re working together on a range of projects to help us understand the environmental impact of our homes and make them more energy-efficient. We are always exploring new ideas that can help to cut the carbon footprint of our homes and services.

Upgrading homes through SHDF funding

Greener Herts members, working in partnership with Dacorum Borough Council, are carrying out improvements to more than 1,500 homes across Hertfordshire – making them fit for the future and more energy-efficient for residents.

 

Benchmarking the efficiency of our homes

We’re working with WarmFront to assess the energy efficiency of our homes – and the results will allow us to target future upgrades, making homes warmer and cheaper to run for residents.

 Upcoming projects

  • Heating systems

    Each partner has identified a number of potential projects, such as installing ground source heat pumps and improving communal heating systems.

    More on this project coming soon.

  • Solar energy

    We’re exploring how solar PV can benefit more of our residents.

    More on this project coming soon.

  • Getting to EPC A

    We’re setting up a collaborative workshop looking at how to make sure all the new homes we build achieve the highest energy performance certificate ratings.

    More on this project coming soon.

  • Lighting

    We’re exploring how to upgrade our communal and emergency lighting to LEDs, potentially fuelled by solar PV.

    More on this project coming soon.

  • Windows

    We’re looking at upgrades or replacements for underperforming windows.

    More on this project coming soon.
