Throughout the retrofitting customer journey, homeowners encounter several barriers that affect their capability and motivation to implement energy efficiency measures.

When it comes to retrofitting their homes, people face several challenges. These include restricted knowledge of decarbonisation and energy efficiency, a lack of awareness and understanding of available energy-saving solutions, and logistical challenges, such as finding reliable installers and dealing with installation disruption.

Accelerating decarbonisation is one of the most pressing issues of our time, and one of the most critical challenges for the UK government to achieve its 2050 net zero ambitions is improving the energy efficiency of 19 million homes across the country.

Homeowners across the UK are facing a value-action gap – the difference between what they aspire to do as opposed to what they actually do – when it comes to retrofitting their homes.

According to Santander’s Buying into the Green Homes Revolution report, only two in five homeowners know what their Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating is.

Energy efficiency is central to reaching net zero targets, with approximately 19 million homes requiring energy efficiency improvements before 2035 to ensure the UK is on track to meet its CCC 2050 net-zero ambition and an 80% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

Last year was a rollercoaster ride for householders as rising costs across the board resulted in an unprecedented cost-of-living crisis.
