Wales Optimised Retrofit Installations

CHIC’s Wales Optimised Retrofit Dynamic Purchasing System for Installations provides a compliant and cost effective route to market for social housing organisations seeking to retrofit their properties in Wales. Retrofitting involves upgrading existing buildings to make them more energy efficient and environmentally friendly. This is an important issue in the social housing sector, where many properties were built before modern energy efficiency standards were introduced, resulting in high energy bills for residents and increased carbon emissions.

The Welsh government has set ambitious targets for reducing carbon emissions and improving the energy efficiency of social housing properties. As a result, the requirements for retrofitting social housing properties in Wales differ from those in the rest of the UK. Our DPS has been specifically designed to meet the unique requirements of retrofitting social housing properties in Wales, ensuring that RSLs’ can achieve the required levels of energy efficiency while also meeting relevant regulations and standards.

The installation process requires specialist skills and knowledge to ensure that the retrofitting technologies and services are installed correctly and safely. The DPS includes a selection of experienced and qualified contractors so you can have confidence that installations will be completed to the highest standards, minimising the risk of costly and time consuming mistakes.
