RetroMeter discovery phase

RetroMeter discovery project

This project will provide and demonstrate a consistent methodology to accurately measure the energy and cost savings of retrofit energy efficiency measures, unlocking pay-for-performance financing, increasing uptake and leading to reduced costs for consumers and additional flexible services for the DNO.

Electricity North West began delivery of this two-month project in April 2023 alongside partners Energy Systems Catapult, Energypro Ltd, Carbon Co-Op and Manchester City Council. 

The Discovery phase will:

  • Develop a list of available and proposed UK energy consumption datasets, with access plans for each.
  • Assess output parameters and current state of Measurement and Verification (M&V) methods and propose two or three methods for development in Alpha Phase.
  • Identify barriers to P4P energy efficiency models; develop a least-cost quantitative model to value the benefits to householders, network users and DNOs; and propose and refine three delivery model options for development in Alpha Phase.
