Energy Efficiency of Local Authority owned stock: Installation of renewable technologies (8660) Metric type
- Help text
- This is the number of dwellings owned by the local authority where there has been installation of renewable technologies, in the reporting year. Renewable technologies are defined as being powered by abundant, free sources of energy such as the sun, the wind or even plant and animal matter, as opposed to generating energy from non renewable sources like fossil fuels.
It also includes low carbon technologies such as heat pumps which are not completely renewable because they still require input of electrical energy but at much smaller scale than conventional technologies. Some of the main options for these technologies are: Heat generating technologies – wood fuelled heating systems, solar water heating and heat pumps; Electricity generating technologies – wind turbines, solar electricity (photovoltaics), hydroelectricity and micro-combined heat and power.
This refers to dwellings owned by the local authority, whether they are located within the local authority area or not.
Where works are to common parts, public and private open areas, or in the case of blocks of flats, to the structure, roofs or other shared elements, it is the total number of dwellings among which the costs of works is to be apportioned. In the case of dwellings that have been sold, only a proportion of the dwellings to reflect the council’s remaining net financial responsibility, if any that are counted.
