Hello
It’s getting chilly isn’t it? With energy bills not far from our minds you might be thinking about longer-term fixes. But they’re expensive. The average price of retrofitting a property to make it more energy efficient, is estimated to be between £25,000 and £30,000 in Manchester.
It would cost about £8billion to retrofit all 240,000 properties in Manchester. City leaders want to achieve a zero carbon city by 2038, but around 84,000 homes must be retrofitted in some way for that to happen. Can it be done?
