St. John's Non-Profit Housing Deep Retrofits

Lead Proponent

City of St. John's

Project Objectives

The objective of this project is to pilot three deep energy retrofit approaches at scale, to enable a comparative analysis of energy performance and cost and identify the most cost-effective approach applicable to regional archetypes. A combination of these solutions will be demonstrated to undertake deep energy retrofits of 101 community housing units.

Expected Results

This project aims to:

1. Reduce GHG emissions and assess the feasibility of deep energy retrofits conducted from the building interior vs. exterior.
2. Enhance energy efficiency, comfort, and reduce long-term Total Cost of Building Ownership (TCBO) in community housing.
3. Identify feasible deep energy retrofit pathways for the City of St. John's community housing inventory.
