Using Case Study Design to Investigate the Delivery of Building Energy Retrofit Projects
Abstract The potential for reductions in carbon emissions in the built environment is significant. However, unlocking the potential presents a problem. To better comprehend the problem and advance solutions, a desktop case-study research design on retrofits was adopted to generate textual data. The textual data were analysed. These reveal different innovative and proactive tools required to attain efficiency in the delivery of building energy retrofit projects (BERP). The study unravels the retrofit features of the project, recorded challenges, and lessons learnt from each of the project. Subsequently, a literal replication of the study were carried out and the result shows that no single BER projects are the same in terms of delivery due to many factors such as age, use, materials, thermal mass, location, orientation and occupancy as the study suggested. The research concludes with a motivation for socio-technical approach to retrofitting exercise.
