Understanding Mixed Tenure in English Social Housing Summary Report

Summary

The UK government aims to achieve Net Zero by reducing domestic building emissions, but mixed tenure social housing developments pose a significant barrier to efficient decarbonisation efforts, as implementing energy efficiency measures often requires consent from both social and private residents within the same development. To address this, the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero commissioned a research study to quantify the extent of mixed tenure and understand residents' and owners' perspectives on retrofit works. The study, now completed, revealed key insights into the challenges of securing agreement for such works, particularly concerning trust, communication, and financial contributions.
