What do we cover in Thurrock?
- Fabric measures: external, internal and cavity wall insulation, loft and floor insulation
- Heating: heat pumps, controls and emitters where specified
- Solar PV where it is part of the design
- Resident liaison through a disruptive programme
- Handover data for lodgement and post-installation evaluation

How do we deliver it?
We do not treat a measure in isolation. If the design adds insulation and airtightness, we make sure the ventilation upgrade is in the same programme, because condensation is the most common retrofit failure.
