Opening doors to low energy refurbishment

About Us

SuperHomes is a rapidly expanding network of over 100 energy aware households. These pioneering homeowners are redefining green living. All have refurbished their old homes to the highest standards of energy efficiency. Eco friendly, sustainable, low energy and low carbon – the refurbished houses are least 60% less reliant on fossil fuels. This means that SuperHome owners are really leading the way. We can learn from them.

SuperHomes Network

The SuperHomes Network harnesses the enthusiasm of energy saving pioneers to bring examples of successful sustainable refurbishment to the widest possible audience.

The SuperHomes campaign (aka Old Home SuperHome) has already opened the doors to over 100 exemplar older dwellings which have been made energy efficient. To qualify as a SuperHome, a 60% reduction in carbon emissions must be achieved.

Behind each eco retrofit is an energy saving pioneer with bold ideas. Most will vouch that sustainable refurbishment can deliver superior comfort and low energy bills without sacrificing a property’s character. But you don’t have to take our word for it. See for yourself.

Dozens of SuperHomes are open to the public on SuperHomes days in March and September. They come in all shapes and sizes and styles so you’ll easily find one similar to your own home.

Sustainable Energy Academy

Sustainable Energy AcademyThe Sustainable Energy Academy is the architect of the SuperHome Campaign. The charity’s aim is to build a network of SuperHomes that are local with at least one eco home accessible, within 15 minutes, to everyone in the country. We plan to grow the network to 500 homes within 5 years.

The Sustainable Energy Academy also promotes research into technology and processes which reduce the time and cost of implementing whole-house retrofits.

The Charity operates on a skeleton staff with the Chairman John Doggart working tirelessly, unpaid.  We thank SuperHome owners for sharing their experience, journalists and partners for telling their story, and our funders and sponsors for giving SuperHomes the opportunity to grow and reach even more people.
