A social housing decarbonisation retrofit project in Holsworthy, Devon,used Marley SolarTile® and Ludlow concrete roof tiles to help transform the properties, making them warmer, more energy efficient and more comfortable for residents.
For this phase of Westward Housing’s wider decarbonisation programme, 35 homes were upgraded with measures including new roofs, in-roof solar PV and thermal insulation.
The improvements not only reduced energy demand and running costs but also upgraded the building fabric, securing the long-term quality and sustainability of the homes for both the housing provider and future residents.
They were chosen to complement the existing housing stock and maintain the local aesthetic.
Solar tile panels
Each home was also fitted with an average of ten Marley SolarTile® panels in M10 410Wp, providing discreet in-roof solar PV that will help residents reduce energy bills.
