A report by the Resolution Foundation recently found that Britain’s housing stock offers the worst value for money of any advanced economy. With UK properties described as “expensive, cramped and ageing”, the need for high-quality, low carbon homes is great, and the need is now.

In this session we will explore, the barriers stopping the UK from meeting its housing targets and the steps needed to incentivise housebuilders towards building well insulated, low energy homes that bring meaningful, long-term benefits to residents and local communities.

The session will also focus on case studies and success stories from across Europe to analyse what lessons and innovative solutions can be used to make Britain’s housing stock better value for money and more energy efficient both in the short and long term.
