Retrofit Accelerator - Workplaces (formerly RE:FIT) was developed to help make London's non-domestic public buildings and assets more energy efficient, lowering emissions and saving public money on energy spending.
Retrofit Accelerator - Workplaces
Buildings are responsible for about 40 per cent of the UK’s total carbon footprint. We need urgent action to meet zero carbon emission targets.
Retrofit Accelerator - Workplaces (also referred to as RE:FIT) was established in 2009 as an award-winning programme part of the Mayor's £34 million Energy for Londoners wider programme.
The Accelerator helps a range of organisations including London boroughs, NHS bodies, central government departments, schools and other educational establishments, and cultural and heritage organisations to implement retrofit projects.
The support we provide
Retrofit Accelerator – Workplaces offers public sector organisations fully funded support through:
- the programme delivery unit, an expert team providing free end-to-end support needed to get projects up, running and successfully implemented
- the easy to use RE:FIT framework of energy service companies, which saves time and resources for organisations that are procuring retrofit services and works which - as an energy performance contracting framework - guarantees energy and cost savings.
Below you can learn more about the project, how it works and the impact it's having on making London a more sustainable city for all.
