Integrating economic considerations with operational and embodied emissions into a decision support system for the optimal ranking of building retrofit options [PDF]
In the UK, 87% of dwellings and 60% of non-domestic buildings that will be standing in 2050 have already been built. Therefore, the greatest energy savings and emissions reductions will be achieved through retrofit of existing buildings.
