Open Legally binding deadlines to fit all homes with solar upgrades + refits

Created by Kathryn Victoria Lee
Closes on

UK homes pump millions of tonnes of carbon yearly. We demand legally binding deadlines to retrofit all existing housing with solar, batteries, and insulation. We must treat this as an emergency to slash energy bills, end fuel poverty, and secure a zero-carbon future.

The UK’s 29 million homes pump millions of tonnes of carbon into our atmosphere. While many new-build regulations will require solar panels, much of our ageing housing stock remains locked into fossil fuels. We want the Government to treat home energy efficiency as a national climate emergency and accelerate its Warm Homes Plan by setting legally binding annual deadlines to retrofit existing domestic properties with solar, batteries, and insulation. This will help slash carbon, protect families, and end fuel poverty.
