HECA ACTIVITIES IN SOUTHWARK Charlotte Maddison The Energy Team
Over view • Population 244,866 • Dwellings 117,039 • private sector 50% • HA 11% • council stock 39% • Homes served by DH 22,000 of which CHP: 1,800
Stock profile and energy efficiency performance • Average SAP • Council 63 • Private 52 • Private rented 49 • HA 62 • Improvement in EE to date 17.27% (baseline figure 9,232,815 GJ)
The Energy Team (proposal) • Team of 6 - ESM, ESO (HECA officer), Admin support, EM, PEMO, Technical Assistant • Delivering HECA and energy management function based in Housing Department • Current all posts vacant apart from ESO
Resources and commitment • Capital and revenue budgets • Current capital budget ₤300k • High level profile because of BVPI63 • Some commitment but Decent Homes takes priority • High level Member interest
Current activities • PLEASE • EAP • HelpCo • HelpCo Tenants • Warm Front/Coldbusters • Eco-Box • Concerto (EU Bid)
Renewables projects • Renewal areas • PV/Solar • Rain water harvesting • Turbines • “Eco” refurbishment
Monitoring progress • UNO database • Linked to APEX (Decent Homes database) • Regular updates used to inform and calculate SAP figure • Can also be used as investment tool
Monitoring progress • HECA annual report • Annual survey (10,000) analysed through UNO • No data for HA • Use a joint UNO/ HECA spreadsheet method for percentage improvements • Council stock data from APEX and separate heating database
External funding • EEC - just signed up 5 areas (of 8) to EEC funders (British Gas/Osborne Energy and contractors own choice) • EU bid ₤1.7m for Concerto • Funding from SE London Partnership Board (Coldbusters)
Main partners • British Gas • Osborne Energy • CEN • SEA (Sustainable Energy Action) • KEMA (EU bid co-ordinators) • GLEEN • EAGA
Strengths and weaknesses, problems and conflicts • Big budget - no staff • Decent Homes vs. sustainability • Lack of accurate data re Fuel Poverty • Limited tools especially for “able to pay” • Plus side - committed, interested staff, solid expert resource
Continued • Issues creeping up the agenda • Corporate lead on Climate Change Strategy • Aim to retain council stock
Future projects • Eco-box scheme • Council tax scheme • Website launch • HECA review • Finally, any questions?
