Merseyside’s commitment to net-zero carbon emissions by 2040 is driving a surge in commercial retrofits in Merseyside. Retrofitting modernises existing buildings, reducing energy use and aligning with environmental goals.
At ARPG, we deliver retrofit solutions that help businesses achieve sustainability while enhancing property value. This post explores how commercial retrofits support Merseyside’s net-zero ambitions and why ARPG is your ideal partner.
Why Retrofit for Net-Zero?
Retrofitting upgrades buildings with energy-efficient systems, insulation, and smart technology. In Merseyside, where commercial buildings account for significant emissions, retrofits are essential. A retrofitted office could cut energy use by 40%, saving £20,000 annually for a 10,000 sq ft space.
Benefits of Commercial Retrofits
1. Reduced Carbon Emissions
Upgrades like low-carbon HVAC and LED lighting lower emissions, supporting Merseyside’s net-zero target.
2. Lower Operational Costs
Energy-efficient systems reduce utility bills, boosting profitability for businesses.
3. Enhanced Property Value
Retrofitted buildings attract eco-conscious tenants, increasing market value by 15–20%.
4. Regulatory Compliance
Retrofits ensure compliance with UK energy performance standards, avoiding penalties.
Challenges in Retrofitting
Cost Management: Upfront costs can be high, requiring strategic planning.
Disruption: Retrofits may impact tenants, necessitating careful scheduling.
Technical Complexity: Integrating modern systems into older buildings demands expertise.
