How it Works

Collating and analysing data relating to a property can be hugely time consuming but Carbon Zero automates and streamlines this process. The cutting-edge solution gathers data from a range of sources, including surveys, maintenance programmes, property disrepair works and Energy Performance Certificates, and centralises it in a single, easy-to-use platform. The data is then analysed to assess the property’s energy performance and carbon emissions and the results are displayed in a dynamic digital dashboard.

As well as generating a report on the status of a property, Carbon Zero provides a breakdown of the work that is required to align the home with decarbonisation targets. The schedule will outline the updates that must be made and provide details of the associated costs, the labour required and a timeline to completion. The platform even incorporates live data, such as product price increases and the availability of assets, to ensure the most accurate information.

Users can then filter the report based on preferences such as location, available budget or to prioritise homes in need of the most work. The dynamic report can then reschedule the works according to the priorities and deliver a new plan and an updated budget. 

In addition, Carbon Zero can aid social housing landlords in budgetary planning and applications. For some landlords, the required energy performance updates may have substantial financial implications and the data provided by the software can be used to support internal budget bids. The plans generated can also be used as evidence in applications for government funding, such as the Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund.
