How does retrofitting impact energy efficiency?

Retrofitting can have a significant impact on energy efficiency by improving the energy performance of existing buildings, equipment and systems. Retrofitting can include actions such as upgrading insulation, replacing inefficient lighting, improving heating and cooling systems, and adding renewable energy sources.

By retrofitting a building with energy-efficient equipment and systems, energy usage can be reduced, resulting in lower operating costs and increased efficiency. Energy-efficient retrofits can also reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve indoor air quality, and increase the comfort of building occupants.

Overall, retrofitting can provide a practical and cost-effective way to improve energy efficiency, reduce operating costs, and contribute to environmental sustainability.
