Free energy efficiency analysis and modelling tools
Helping you kickstart your retrofit journey
To plan a retrofit programme, you need to do a number of things.
Assess your housing stock to identify the suitability of households for specific energy efficiency measures.
Check how eligible your housing stock is for the many funding schemes available.
Understand the varying cost benefits of different energy efficiency measures.
Our information and analysis services are approved and funded by the Scottish Government, making them free to access and use. They can identify the most cost-effective retrofit solutions for your housing stock, enabling you to meet regulatory requirements (like EESSH2), reduce fuel poverty, and help deliver Scotland’s ambitious target to be net zero by 2045.
To discuss your energy efficiency analysis and modelling needs call us on 07884 984258 or email us.
“The support we’ve received has made a significant contribution to shaping and developing our approach to energy planning and been key to our progress with LHEES. This level of partnership working is a welcome and necessary step to scaling up efforts to meet net zero targets. We value the relationship we have built and look forward to continuing to work together.”
– Shelley McCann, Strategic Planning and Sustainability Officer, Perth & Kinross Council

Home Analytics is an address-level housing stock dataset that provides information on the physical characteristics of every property in Scotland. It boasts over 100 information fields, including energy efficiency potential and renewable energy potential, and provides local authorities and housing associations with essential information to:
develop and deliver energy efficiency improvements and low-carbon heating technologies,
Find out more about how Home Analytics can help with your energy efficiency analysis and modelling. Call 07884 984258 or email us.
The Portfolio Energy Analysis Tool (PEAT) provides detailed cost-benefit modelling to help you target your retrofit planning efficiently and effectively. There is also free training and support available to help you get the most from this powerful tool.
PEAT allows you to:
determine recommended energy efficiency improvements and costs for each property
conduct an almost limitless selection of ‘what-if scenarios’ to assess the impact of installing various measures on key metrics, including EPC rating, fuel bills and energy consumption, carbon dioxide emissions, and the risk of fuel poverty.
Find out more about PEAT’s powerful modelling ability, and training to support its introduction. Call 07884 984258 or email us.
The Home Energy Efficiency Database (HEED) provides comprehensive information on energy efficiency measures installed under Scottish Government schemes since 1992. It gives you full details of property attributes and energy efficiency characteristics, such as:
property type
tenure and age
wall type and insulation
loft insulation
glazing
main heating fuel type and heating system
all of which can support retrofit planning.
It is an invaluable source of information for local authorities and housing associations, and for academic researchers.
