National Retrofit Plan

The new National Retrofit Plan, which was published as part of Climate Action Plan 2021, sets out how the Government will deliver on our retrofit targets. The Plan is designed to address barriers to retrofit across four key pillars: driving demand and activity; financing and funding; supply chain, skills and standards; and governance. For each pillar, barriers were identified and time-bound policies, measures and actions were put in place to address them. The initiatives in the Plan were guided by a number of key principles:

• Fairness – ensuring fairness to all and supporting a just transition
• Universality – covering all housing types and consumer segments/income deciles
• Customer-centric – designing customer centric solutions to reduce the costs and hassle, making the process easier for those investing in retrofit
• Cost-optimal – encouraging retrofits to cost-optimal level and maximising emissions abatement
• Industry-led – stimulating and supporting industry confidence to invest, grow and take on more workers

The National Retrofit Plan commits to the establishment of a cross-departmental steering group, chaired by the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications. This Group will be established in Q1 2022 and will oversee and monitor progress against our national targets and develop new initiatives as required.
